Which is a way thst groundwater depletion affects streams?
Water depletion would mean that streams would dry out, and rivers run low.
When would water be found in a liquid state?
While in oceans, streams, rivers, lakes, or in groundwater.
How are groundwater and runoff different and alike?
Well, groundwater and runoff both land on Earth as precipitation, but groundwater is water that gets trapped underground by seeping through rocks. You capture this water by wells. Runoff is when precipitation flows from (usually) mountains. The water gets into streams, and streams join to form rivers. The rivers would usually lead to the ocean. Most of the runoff gets evaporated when the water reaches the ocean; only a little-bit of the water in rivers and streams flowing down is evaporated then.
If glacial ice is excluded and only liquid freshwater is considered about what percentage is groundwater?
14.158%
How is reducing the pollution in streams and groundwater linked to water conservation?
You can't drink polluted water and animal can't drink them either. You can't water plants either.
What is the best description of rivers lakes an streams?

5 features formed by rivers and streams as they erode the land?
alluvial fans, deltas, groundwater erosion, deposition, soil on flood plains
Where does the fresh water come from?
The earth's fresh water is naturally occurring water that is in ice sheets, ice caps, glaciers, icebergs, bogs, ponds, lakes, rivers and streams, and underground as groundwater in aquifers and underground streams.
Do streams and lakes represent the intersection of the water table with the surface in valley bottoms?
Streams and lakes do represent the intersection of the water table with the surface in valley bottoms. The water table is the layer under the earth that contains groundwater.
How can rain or melted snow become groundwater?
The area from which water drains into a river
If glacial ice is excluded and only liquid freshwater is considered about what percentage is groundwater?
14.158%
