TEK 7.8C
I can model the effects of human activity on ground water and surface water in a
watershed.
![Page 3: Human Activity. TEK 7.8C I can model the effects of human activity on ground water and surface water in a watershed](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081506/56649ed25503460f94be1434/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Watershed: area of land that drains water from higher land to lower land and
into a stream

Drainage Basin: area of land that drains water from higher land to lower land and into a
stream

Groundwater: water that collects in cracks and spaces in the rocks and sediments beneath Earth’s surface.

Water Table: beneath Earth’s surface, the top of the
groundwater.

Surface Water: water that collects in streams, rivers or
lakes.

Pollution: any change in the environment that is harmful to
organisms.

Pollution from lawns or farms (fertilizers or pesticides) can be carried into lakes and rivers by
rain or irrigation.

Point Source: disposal site of leaking pipe
Nonpoint Source: pollutants are found in run off of crops, parking lots and other land.

Fertilizer: substances that supply plants and soil with nutrients
![Page 13: Human Activity. TEK 7.8C I can model the effects of human activity on ground water and surface water in a watershed](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081506/56649ed25503460f94be1434/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Pesticides: is a substance or mixture of substances intended for
preventing, destroying or repelling any pest.

Pollution from homes (sewage and dirty water) and factories can be carried into lakes and streams.
![Page 15: Human Activity. TEK 7.8C I can model the effects of human activity on ground water and surface water in a watershed](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081506/56649ed25503460f94be1434/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Pollution from cars (oil and antifreeze) can be washed off roads and carried into
lakes and rivers.
![Page 16: Human Activity. TEK 7.8C I can model the effects of human activity on ground water and surface water in a watershed](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081506/56649ed25503460f94be1434/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
All of this pollution into surface water can leak into our groundwater and can
become part of our drinking water.

pH Level Scaleused to tell how acidic or basic a substance is
Acid• Tastes sour, change blue
litmus paper red, and react with metals
• A pH level below 7
Base• Taste bitter, change red
litmus paper blue, feel slippery, and dissolve fats
• A pH above 7
A substance with pH of 7 is neutral, neither an acid or base

Oil Spill In Gulf of Mexico• An explosion on April 20th aboard
the Deepwater Horizon, a drilling rig working on a well for the oil company BP one mile below the surface of the Gulf of Mexico, led to the largest accidental oil spill in history.
• After many failed efforts to plug the leak, BP said on July 15 that it capped the leak, marking the first time in 86 days that oil was not gushing into the gulf.
• Estimated and actual spread of oil
