<h2>Answer:</h2>

97% of Earth's water is in ocean.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Oceans on Earth covers more than 70% of surface. About 97% of water on earth is in the oceans. The remaining tiny percentage is in form of glaciers and ice caps. Out of all this water, only less than one percent is fresh water.

Very little percentage is present as water vapor in the atmosphere. Water is the precious thing on Earth, in spite of the amount existing which cannot be used for consuming purpose. Let us all understand the importance of water and use very effectively.

What is the difference between erosion and deposition?
Verdich [7]
<span>Erosion is the displacement of solids (soil, mud, rock and other particles) by the agents of wind, water or ice, by downward or down-slope movement in response to gravity or by living organisms (in the case of bioerosion). 

Deposition, also known as sedimentation, is the geological process whereby material is added to a landform. This is the process by which wind, water or ice create a sediment deposit, through the laying down of granular material that has been eroded and transported from another geographical location. 

Deposition occurs when the forces responsible for sediment transportation are no longer sufficient to overcome the forces of particle weight and friction, which resist motion. Deposition can also refer to the build up of a sediment from organically derived matter or chemical processes. For example, chalk is made up partly of the microscopic calcium carbonate skeletons of marine plankton, the deposition of which has induced chemical processes (diagenesis) to deposit further calcium carbonate.</span>

Dinosaurs once stomped across the Yukon, leaving tracks in mud that were buried in more mud and hardened to stone. Some may have
densk [106]

In this question, we are not provided with the image of the dinosaur track. Because of this, we are unable to tell whether this specific track is right-side up or upside-down. However, we can give you some guidance so that you can identify this on your own.

In general, in this type of prints, mud cracks extend downward into soft sediment. These cracks mean that when more sediment is washed in, the second layer fills the cracks beneath. Afterwards, once the layers have hardened, the rock may be cracked apart. Based on this, we can conclude that if you see troughs in a mud-crack pattern, you re looking at the second layer, which was originally right-side up.

Why are astronauts (and other objects) weightless inside the International Space Station as it orbits Earth?
nordsb [41]

Answer:

It´s because of the lack of the gravity factor that´s present on the surface of Earth. This makes bodies and objects so light and they practically float in the station´s interior. Earth´s gravity is simply weaker the further you are from it.

B. North Sea, it is well known for its fierceness. Throughout the year there are strong storms that hit the coasts of the countries that surround it.This huge raft of seawater of about 750,000 square kilometers, an "arm of the Atlantic" we could say, receives marine currents from the other side of the world and is stirred up affecting the British Isles, Norway, Denmark, Germany, Holland, Belgium and France with big tides and scary storms.
