HELP I NEED THISIn addition to groundwater, watersheds also include surface water. Surface water is water that flows over Earth’s surface. In many watersheds, small gullies and streams flow into larger bodies of moving water, such as rivers. They may also flow into bodies of still water such as lakes and ponds. Many streams and rivers ultimately flow into oceans, where most of Earth’s surface water is stored. Like groundwater, surface water is a source of water for many people on Earth. In addition to lakes and rivers, these water sources include man-made reservoirs. If you live in a city or a suburban community, you probably get your water from such a reservoir. The reservoir collects rainwater and surface runoff. The water in the reservoir is then piped through purification stations to make it safe for human use before it reaches people’s faucets.

What is an example of surface water that we have in Katy? Explain factors that cause it to change. .
