Answer:
The water moves from one reservoir to another, such as from river to ocean, or from the ocean to the atmosphere, by the physical processes of evaporation, condensation, precipitation, infiltration, surface runoff, and subsurface flow. In doing so, the water goes through different forms: liquid, solid (ice) and vapor.

Answer:
Hey mate. 2nd statement is incorrect. Because oceanic water contains a huge amount of salt and thus, they are unfit for drinking. So, they are not a source of drinking water.
