Biology
1 answer:
Sergeeva-Olga [200]3 years ago
5 0

According to the U.S. Geological Survey, most of that three percent is inaccessible. Over 68 percent of the fresh water on Earth is found in icecaps and glaciers, and just over 30 percent is found in ground water. Only about 0.3 percent of our fresh water is found in the surface water of lakes, rivers, and swamps. The use for the water in the world is for household drinking water. The ocean stores about 97 percent of the Earth's water; the remaining three percent is stored in glaciers and ice, below the ground, in rivers and lakes. Of the world's total water supply of about 332 million cubic miles of water, about 97 percent is stored in the ocean.

Hope this helps!

Which of the following is true of anabolic reactions? View Available Hint(s) Which of the following is true of anabolic reaction
puteri [66]

Answer:

Anabolic reactions use ATP and small substrates as building blocks to synthesize larger molecules.

Explanation:

Anabolic reactions are part of metabolic pathways that occur inside the living cells. Anabolic reactions always form complex molecules from simpler substances. The formation of glucose from relatively simpler CO2 and H2O during the Calvin cycle is an example of the anabolic pathway. During anabolic pathways, the metabolic energy of ATP hydrolysis drives the endergonic reactions. Therefore, anabolic reactions consume ATP. Calvin cycle uses the ATP produced during light reactions of photosynthesis.
