During a rainfall, surface runoff will probably be greatest in an area that has a

• Steep slope

• Gentle slope

Water can pass through sandstone because the sample is

• permeable

• organic in origin

• well compacted and cemented

• composed of pebble sized particles

If the soil is saturated, and precipitation increases, there will be

• decrease in the amount of runoff

• increase in the amount of runoff

• decreases in the amount of groundwater

• increase in the amount of transpiration
