उत्तर
- The underground flow of water is more common than surface water in the limestone areas.
- It is because the chief constituent of limestone is calcium carbonate which is soluble in pure water.
- It is easily soluble in carbonated water.
- Surface run offs and infiltration into the ground starts the solution process along the fractures and joints.
