SAQ-1: List the two major water resources and give examples each.
 Ground water – undergrounds like wells and springs all originate from
groundwater
 Surface water – above the ground, visible and easily accessible like the
oceans, rivers, lakes, swamps and others that are visible in the surface.
SAQ-2: Compare and contrast groundwater and surface water using a Venn diagram.
