What is an aquifer?

A device to measure water quality
A tool to pump water
A model for groundwater flow
The overall geologic formation for groundwater

The correct answer is: The overall geologic formation for groundwater

An aquifer is a body of underground permeable rock, sediment, or soil that can store and transmit water. This means that it is not a tool or device, but rather a natural feature in the Earth's surface. Option A is incorrect because it refers to a device, which an aquifer is not. Option B is incorrect because an aquifer does not pump water, but rather stores and transmits it. Option C is incorrect because it refers to a model, which an aquifer is not. The correct answer, D, accurately describes the overall formation and function of an aquifer.
