Question

Where is the majority of the planet’s freshwater located? A. in rivers and lakes B. in the world’s oceans C. underground D. in the polar ice caps

Answer 1

More than 68 percent of the fresh water on Earth is found in icecaps and glaciers, and a little more than 30 percent is found in ground water. Just about 0.3 percent of our fresh water is found in the surface water of lakes, streams, and marshes.

Answer 2

C. Underground

This is because water is purified underground and while river and lakes used to take that space, they have been mostly polluted by people.
