The answer may be that virtually all the water on Mars is now locked in the permafrost layer under the surface, with more contained in the planet’s polar caps. 2.What does the discussion in paragraph 1 of runoff channels in the southern highlands suggest about Mars?
They were formed during the Pleistocene when ascending basaltic magma encountered frozen permafrost. It is believed that a slow but sustained supply of water from the permafrost contributed to the enormous size of these maars. [2]ADVERTISEMENT How Common are Maars? Maars are more numerous than ...

The largest impact event on Mars is believed to have occurred in the northern hemisphere. This area, known as the North Polar Basin, measures some 10,600 km by 8,500 km, or roughly four times larger than the Moon's South Pole – Aitken basin, the largest impact crater yet discovered. ...
