Question

The largest amount of freshwater on our planet is available for us is form
A. Lakes and streams
B. Polar icecaps and glaciers
C. Rivers
D. Underground

Answer 1

Hint: Fresh water includes the waters of ice caps, rives, ponds, streams, glaciers, bogs, icebergs and even underground water. Fresh water does not include the sea water. The main characteristic of fresh water is it has a very low concentration of sodium chloride or salt. The main source of freshwater is the rain, mist and the snow fall.

Complete answer: The 2/3^rd of the world is made up with water.
Almost 68 % of fresh water of the world is present in the poles as polar ice caps and glaciers.
30 % of the total water of the world is found in the underground.
0.3 % water is found in the lakes, streams, river and ponds.
     

So, the correct answer for this question is option B. Polar icecaps and glaciers

Note: The basic difference between the sea water and fresh water is done on the basis of the presence of salt.
Sea water has the highest salt concentration where fresh water has a very low salt concentration in it. For example, hilsa, whale, crab etc., are some of the animals found in seawater, whereas rohu, ducks etc. are found in freshwater.
