Answer:

Explanation:

The hydrosphere refers to the water bodies that are found on the earth's surface. More than 71% of the earth is covered with water. This water is found in all its forms - ice, water and water vapour. Running water in oceans and rivers and in lakes, ice in glaciers, underground water and the water vapour in atmosphere. More than 97% of the earth's water is found in oceans. The ocean water is very salty, hence not of human utility. A large proportion of the rest of the water is in the form of icesheets and glaciers or under the ground. A very small percentage (0.03%) is available as fresh water.
