Examine the groundwater flow patterns around Point X. Into which bodies of water (if any) will water that infiltrates at Point X eventually discharge?
 
  A) Stream
  B) Left-hand lake
  C) Right-hand lake
  D) Major river

Question 2

Assume that the irrigation well in the middle of this image was installed by a seed corn company and not by the farmers who own the local wells on either side.
 
  If irrigation were stopped immediately, would this localized lowering recover immediately? Why or why not?
  A) Yes. Water from other parts of the aquifer could replace what was lost.
  B) No. The average aquifer has a groundwater flow rate of 4 cm/day.
  C) Yes. The reduced pressure in the aquifer would allow the groundwater to flow faster.
  D) No. Now that irrigation has stopped, there is no suction necessary to draw the water.
