HELP WILL BE GIVING BRANLIEST TO WHOEVER ANSWERS ALL FAST PLEASE Name four things from which Earth’s water evaporates:

True or false: More fresh water is located under Earth’s surface than in all of Earth’s lakes and rivers.

Snow melt near mountain tops often forms the start of a stream. If you followed a stream from it’s mountain source, what would you find?

What is a watershed?

Name two ways in which a lake is different than a pond.

What are three types of wetlands?

Give two reasons why wetlands should be protected.

Name four things from which Earth’s water evaporates:

-soils

-clouds

-rivers

-lakes

Water evaporates from within soils and through vegetation and from bodies of water (such as rivers, lakes, and oceans). This evaporated water accumulates as water vapor in clouds and returns to the Earth as rain or snow. The returning water falls directly back into the oceans, or onto land as snow or rain.

True or false: More freshwater is located under Earth’s surface than in all of Earth’s lakes and rivers.

True

Over 68 percent of the fresh water on Earth is found in icecaps and glaciers, and just over 30 percent is found in groundwater. Only about 0.3 percent of our freshwater is found in the surface water of lakes, rivers, and swamps.

Snowmelt near mountain tops often forms the start of a stream. If you followed a stream from its mountain source, what would you find?

The stream of water flows into the body of water, it slows down and drops the sediment it was carrying. The sediment may build up to form a delta.

What is a watershed?

It’s a land area that channels rainfall and snowmelt to creeks, streams, and rivers, and eventually to outflow points such as reservoirs, bays, and the ocean.

Name two ways in which a lake is different than a pond.

The difference between a pond and a lake is that ponds are generally small, shallow and sunlight reaches the bottom and a lake are generally big, deeper, and plants grow mostly on the edges due to the lack of sunlight in the lower depths.

What are three types of wetlands?

-marshes

-swamps

-bogs

Give two reasons why wetlands should be protected.

Wetlands are important because they protect and improve water quality, provide fish and wildlife habitats, store floodwaters and maintain surface water flow during dry periods.
