Answer: To cleanse

Step-by-step explanation:

A watershed is an area of land that drains or “sheds” water into a specific waterbody. Every body of water has a watershed. Watersheds drain rainfall and snowmelt into streams and rivers.

Whether it's traveling underground or on the surface, humans use the water in a watershed for:

drinking

washing

powering hydroelectric power plants

growing crops

literally anything that uses water

Please give a 5 star or a thanks if this helped you!
