Question

Rivers are filled with salt water. True or false

Answer 1

Answer:

False

Explanation:

As river water is always running, salt is not stored

River water contains many carbon compounds. Carbon compounds flow into the sea along with river water and are mixed with seawater. Living things in the sea take in calcium carbonate from the carbon compounds and make bones. Their bones sink to the bottom of the sea when living things die.

Living things use carbon compounds. However, they use only a small amount of salt. Wherever river water flows into the sea, the amount of salt in the sea becomes greater.

As river water is always running, salt contained in the river water is not stored. This is the reason river water does not become salty..
