In a bank, the money that a person gives to a bank in exchange for interest is called a deposit.
Deposit is a term originating from the Latin depositum that allows us to name the action and effect of depositing (delivering, entrusting, enclosing or protecting goods or valuable objects). The deposit generally consists of placing said assets in the custody of a person or an organization that must respond for them when requested.
As a banking operation , a deposit consists of delivering money to the bank in exchange for interest. The client can withdraw or use their money according to the conditions stipulated with the institution. If it is a fixed-term deposit, you must wait for the end of the period before withdrawing the money, for example. The person can also deposit valuable objects in a safe deposit box, paying a certain amount for this service.
Deposit, likewise, can be the symbolic entrustment that one person gives to another or others: "María Marta made a deposit of trust in this man and he defrauded her without caring about anything."
The warehouse as storage space
A warehouse is, on the other hand, any place where something is stored or maintained . A supermarket has products on display available to customers and others stored in a warehouse to replace products that are out of stock. A family may also have a storage room to store things that are not used frequently.
The tanks can be tanks of water or other fluids. Depending on the content, the tanks have different characteristics that allow them to tolerate different consistencies, temperatures, etc.
It is important to establish that one of the tanks that we use most frequently is the one found in cars and other motor vehicles. Specifically, we use this term to refer to the receptacle that those have with the clear objective of housing the fuel necessary for their operation. Thus, for example, it is common for a customer to arrive at any gas station and address the employee saying "fill up my car."
A warehouse is a storage place.
The term in geography
In the same way, we must not forget that the word in question is also used in the field of geography . Thus, it usually talks about what is known as a deposit to refer to that material that is decided to be added to a specific geographical feature.
This action is sometimes carried out by nature itself, when the wind transports sand from one place to another, and on other occasions it is by the hands of man.
Morgue
Another type of deposit that is important within the healthcare field is the mortuary. As its name indicates, it is the place where the different bodies of deceased people are preserved in cold storage rooms until their relatives can recognize them and take them away so they can bury them.
It must also be emphasized that this space is also essential for the work of the forensic experts who keep the bodies of their patients there until they can thoroughly examine them to determine the cause or causes that led to their deaths.
