4 0

Answer:

The total amount of water on the planet that is present in the <em>atmosphere</em> at any given time is about 0.001% of the total water found on Earth. This atmospheric water is responsible for all storms.

If by in storage we mean in <em>groundwater</em> then the percentage would be 1.69.

Explanation:

The overwhelming majority of all water on our planet resides in the <em>oceans</em>. These hold about 96.5% of the total.

If we only consider freshwater (water with no salt) then the greatest storage areas are <em>ice caps</em>, <em>glaciers</em>, and <em>groundwater aquifers</em>.

Explain the process of precipitation,evaporation, and condensation within the water cycle
andre [41]

evaporation is when a mass of water is hit by sunlight and some of it turns to a vapor. In the atmosphere, that vapor cools and the water molecules fuse with other water molecules, forming clouds. (condensation) When the clouds become full, the water precipitates onto land or into the ocean in the form of rain, sleet, snow or hail (precipitation).

Which answer accurately describes people's perceptions of the environment over the past century?
alekssr [168]

Answer:

The correct answer is D

Explanation:

During the 20th century, there was an increasing interest in the environment. The impact of human activity on the environment has been observed locally since centuries. Pollution of canals and chimneys in crowded urban areas etc were all causes of concern.

However, with a better understanding of our earth and increase in Medical knowledge of the 20th century, we could observe how our activities were having a global impact on the ozone layer and the melting ice caps.

Evidence was also provided on how human health was affected by this. The use of fossil fuels was not only directly damaging to the atmosphere, it was also dangerous for humans e.g. carbon monoxide produced by car emissions.
