Solution

The correct option is C infiltration
Groundwater gets recharged by this process of infiltration.
Infiltration is the process by which precipitation or the bulk of rainwater and melted snow soaks into subsurface soils and moves into rocks through cracks and pore spaces. So when the water soaks into the ground, the groundwater gets recharged.
