Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hydraulic fracturing, commonly known as fracking, is a process where high-pressure liquids (mostly water mixed with sand and chemicals) are injected into the earth to create fractures in rocks that contain natural gas or oil. This process allows for the extraction of these resources from the rock formations.
