Which of the following contains 3/4 of the available fresh water in the world :
Answer and explanation
Correct answer C
“Glaciers” is the intended store of the dominant share of the world’s freshwater, including land ice and ice caps in this broad textbook usage. “Lakes”, “River water” and “Ground water” do not account for the stated three-quarters share. The fraction is an approximate older formulation, not a claim that every modern inventory puts the share at exactly75%.
