Much of earth’s fresh water is found in glaciers. what percentage of earth’s water is found in glaciers?

2.15%

5.75%

15.5%

25.25%

Option (1)

Explanation:

Out of all the water body (total composition) present on earth, about 97% is the ocean saline water and the remaining 3% comprises the freshwater that includes the water of the rivers, lakes, streams and ponds.

Again, from this total amount of freshwater (3%), the glaciers and ice caps cover nearly 68% of it, groundwater covers about 30% and some other surface (fresh) water comprises the remaining 2%.

So, in simple words, it can be concluded that about 2% (68/100*3) of the freshwater is occupied by the glaciers.

Thus, from the given options, the most approximate value is 2.15% which is option (1).

a maximum–minimum thermometer. the scales are fahrenheit on the inside of the u and celsius on the outside. the current temperature is 23 degrees celsius, the maximum recorded is 25, and the minimum is 15, both read from the base of the small markers in each arm of the u tube. the bulbs are hidden by a plastic housing.

six's thermometer is a registering thermometer which can record the maximum and minimum temperatures reached over a period of time, for example 24 hours. it is used to record the extremes of temperature at a location, for instance in meteorology and horticulture. it was invented by a british scientist james six, born in canterbury, in 1780; [1] the same basic design remains in use.

it is also commonly known as a maximum–minimum, minimum–maximum, maxima–minima or minima–maxima thermometer, of which it is the earliest practical design.

the thermometer indicates the current temperature, and the highest and lowest temperatures since last reset.
