Question

List two ways in which water reaches the ocean

Answer 1

Answer:

Precipitation and runoff

Explanation:

The oceans get water in several different manners, with some of them being through precipitation, and through runoff. Whenever there is precipitation on the ocean waters, the water from it of course ends up in it, thus it accumulates it. Also, when there's precipitation on the land, a runoff appears. The runoff is simply the water from the precipitation that moves on the surface, downhill, and usually ends up in some water body. Part of the runoff ends up in the oceans, and that is the runoff that appears on the slopes that are near the ocean and are sloping toward the ocean waters.
