उत्तर

Underground water is found in soil, subsoil and underground streams.

Explanation:

Underground water, also known as groundwater, is found in various layers beneath the Earth’s surface:

  1. Soil: Water present in the upper layers of soil is called soil moisture. It is easily accessible to plant roots and is important for agriculture.

  2. Subsoil: Below the topsoil lies the subsoil, where water percolates and accumulates. This layer contains more compact materials and stores a significant amount of groundwater.

  3. Underground streams: In limestone regions or porous rock formations, water flows through underground channels or streams, often forming caves and underground rivers.
