Select the best answer for the question.

Which material most likely would form an aquiclude?

A. Clay
B. Sand
C. Gravel
D. Sandstone

Asked by kira9552

Answer (1)

Clay is the most likely material to form an aquiclude due to its low permeability, which restricts groundwater flow. Sand and gravel, on the other hand, have high permeability and cannot function as aquicludes. Sandstone may vary, but typically does not act as effectively as clay in this role. ;
