Question

Lakes and ponds are small water bodies, how are these waterbodies formed?

Answer 1

• When rainwater falls on the earth, it passes through many areas and gets collected in a small amount in low-lying areas.
• Lakes and ponds are small reservoirs of water that are created by the collection of water in low-lying areas formed by the geologic uplift of mountains can lead to depressions that fill with water to create lakes.
• The seepage from groundwater also gets collected in the water in lakes and ponds.
