Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The majority of liquid freshwater on Earth is found in groundwater. This includes water that fills the cracks and spaces in underground soil and rock. Lakes, rivers, and streams, while visible and significant sources of freshwater, contain a much smaller percentage compared to the vast amounts stored underground. Atmospheric clouds, although they play a crucial role in the water cycle, contain water in vapor form rather than liquid.
