  • D. A-2, B-3, C-1
Correct Answer: Option D - Surface runoff–Surface runoff is also known as terrestrial or overland runoff. • It is defined as the unconfined flow of water over the ground surface. In case of unconfined aquifer the specific yield is less than porosity. Interflow–Interflow refers to that part of precipitation that infiltrates into the surface soil, moves laterally through the upper crust of soil and returns to the surface at some distance away from point of entry into the ground. Base flow–It is defined as flow that comes from delayed sources and thus sustains streamflow during dry periods. • Base flow denotes delayed groundwater flow reaching a stream.
