1 Why the test is used: Between 75% and 90% of people with lupus have a positive anti-dsDNA test. 2  Also, the test is very specific for lupus. 3  Therefore, a positive test can be useful in confirming a diagnosis. 4  For many people, the titer, or level, of the antibodies rises as the disease becomes more active.
The zone below ground where the pore spaces are filled with ground water is called the saturated zone. Above the saturated zone, where the pore spaces are not filled with ground water, is the unsaturated zone. The water table marks the boundary between the saturated and unsaturated zone. The water table intersects Earth's surface at rivers and at lakes.
Water is found in many places on Earth including on the surface of the planet, within rocks below the surface, and in the atmosphere. Water travels between different areas of the Earth through the water cycle. About 70% of the Earth surface is covered with water, and most of that is the ocean. Only a small portion of the Earth's water is freshwater, which is found in rivers, lakes, and groundwater. Freshwater is needed for drinking, farming, and washing.
