A standing body of water, like a pond or lake, can form when water does not soak immediately underground. This can occur in areas with impermeable rock or clay layers that prevent water from infiltrating the soil quickly, resulting in surface water collecting in depressions or low-lying areas. Over time, these standing bodies of water can support various aquatic plants and animals.
This describes how puddles or standing water can form on the ground's surface when the soil is unable to absorb water quickly enough. This can occur due to factors such as soil compaction or a high water table.
Water that does not soak into the ground is called surface water. This can include rainwater running off pavement, rivers, lakes, and oceans.
Surface water, runoff, or standing water.
A rock that can soak up water is called a porous rock. These rocks have tiny holes or spaces that allow water to be absorbed and held within them.
Water that doesn't soak into the ground is called surface water. This can include water on the surface of the soil, like puddles or streams, or water on impermeable surfaces like roads or roofs.

The word is infiltrate. It means that the water will soak into the ground and collect as underground water.
Tarmac can start to soak up water immediately upon contact, but the rate at which it absorbs water depends on various factors such as temperature, surface condition, and porosity of the tarmac. In general, it may take a few hours for tarmac to fully absorb water.
Aquifers absorb water the same way that sponges do. However, aquifers are actually permeable rocks that lay underground and soak up moisture.
The water quickly runs off and may form a flash flood.
A Soak Pit, also known as a soakaway or leach pit, is a covered, porous-walled chamber that allows water to slowly soak into the ground. Pre-settled effluent from a Collection and Storage/Treatment or (Semi-) Centralized Treatment technology is discharged to the underground chamber from where it infiltrates into the surrounding soil.
Soak in hot water
yes, because the water cycle is constant, and if water that evaporates in the sea travels as water vapour over land and rains then the rain can soak in and run back to lakes as water underground.(throughflow)
It means to soak your feet. This often involves putting special things in the water to soothe your feet, but you can also just soak them in water.
No, salt does not soak up water. Instead, it dissolves in water, forming a solution.
Soak in hot water soften slightly. as it cools place (carefully) in the mouth and press into place biting down as you do so to imprint. Place immediately in cold water
I like to soak my feet in cold water.
