Question

71 % of Earth's surface is covered with water. Does this mean that there is enough water to drink on planet? Justify.​

Answer 1

Answer:

About 71 percent of the Earth's surface is water-covered, and the oceans hold about 96.5 percent of all Earth's water. Water also exists in the air as water vapor, in rivers and lakes, in icecaps and glaciers, in the ground as soil moisture and in aquifers, and even in you and your dog. Water is never sitting still.

Answer 2

Answer:

There is 71% of water in earth surface but we cant drink it because of salt nature of water which cause dehydration in body. Only 1% of total water is available for drinking in form of glacier, river, pounds etc.Water get evaporated from oceans and get mixed with air and form cloud. So, the correct option is 'both assertion and reason are correct but reason is not explanation for assertion'.
