Answer:
Earth is the only planet in our solar system that has a large amount of liquid water. About 74% of the surface of Earth is covered by liquid or frozen water. Because of this, people sometimes call it the blue planet. Because of its water, Earth is home to millions of species of plants and animals.

The Earth is at the proper distance from the Sun, its magnetic field protects it from harmful solar radiation, an insulating atmosphere keeps it warm, and it has the necessary chemical ingredients for life, including water and carbon.
Why does Earth support life?
- Earth may be the only planet in the solar system where life can exist.
- There are several factors that favor the earth's ability to support life, ranging from microorganisms to humans. Among the most important are:
- To begin, our planet has an atmosphere that contains several important gases, including oxygen, which is critical for life.
- Second, a large portion of the planet has favorable climatic conditions for life.
- Third, water is one of the most important elements for supporting life, as the first life on Earth began in water.
- Fourth, without the sun, there would be no earth; the sun is critical to the survival of life on Earth.
- Fifth, the presence of an ozone layer in the atmosphere is important; while the sun is essential for life on Earth, all of the sun's rays are harmful; the ozone layer protects the earth from these harmful rays.
