Which statement is true about groundwater flow?

Groundwater flows from zones of low pressure to zones of high pressure.

Groundwater does not flow but stays in one location until pumped upward.

Groundwater moves downward by gravity and from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure.

Groundwater circulates in a convection current manner.

Can you imagine a fluid moving from low pressure to high pressure?  That just doesn't make any sense.

And can you imagine a fluid not moving downward from gravity if it could?

My guess was 3 then again Im not sure.

jamesj · Answer

Yes, 3 is right, for the reasons I suggested above.

Also, convection currents have to do with heat transfer, so that's a nonsense answer.
