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>.
The Guayas River flows through Guyaquil, which is the largest city in
Ecuador. However, it is not the capital city, which is Quito. The Guayas
River has it's name, because it flows through the Guayas province. The
Guayas River does not flow into any ocean or sea. Guayaquil is also the
most populated in Ecuador. The city underwent relatively recently an
"urban renegation" to attract more tourists to that particular region of
Ecuador. This was also to help boost the economy, since at the moment
it mostly consists of small and medium businesses, agriculture and
aquaculture.
Answer:
B) Distinctly alkaline diagnostic horizons, thin profiles, lack of organic material, and dominance of sandy materials are features most closely associated with aridisols.
Explanation:
The aridisols are types of soils that are found predominantly in arid areas. They are soils that are not considered as fertile, and are near the bottom by quality of soils. These soils are lacking organic material, and also are very exposed to erosion, with the primary reason being the climate, as it doesn't allow for lot of vegetation to grow. The horizons of the aridisols are distinctly alkaline diagnostic ones, with the profiles being very thin and labile. The top layer of the soil is dominated by sandy material, which is a result of the extensive weathering and erosion in their surroundings, so the wind is mostly transporting small sandy grains and covers most of the area with them.
