What is the saturated zone defined as?

  1. The layer of soil with air spaces

  2. The layer of fractured bedrock

  3. The layer with no water

  4. The layer filled with water

The correct answer is: The layer filled with water

The saturated zone, also known as the water table, is the layer of soil or rock beneath the surface that is completely filled with water. This layer is where water is able to flow freely through the spaces between the particles or fractures in the rock. Option A is incorrect because the layer of soil with air spaces is called the unsaturated zone. Option B is incorrect because fractured bedrock can also be saturated with water and is not exclusively the saturated zone. Option C is incorrect because the saturated zone is defined by the presence of water, not the absence of it.
