Answer:
The
freshwater is obtained from surface run-off and groundwater that is continually
being renewed and recharged through the hydrological cycle. Its processes are:
Evaporation: The water in the oceans or seas, which is salty water, gets evaporated
with the solar energy.
(ii) Condensation: The minute
particles which get evaporated, get condensed in the atmosphere with dust
particles and pollens present in the atmosphere. They then form clouds.
(iii) Precipitation: When
saturation takes place, it precipitates in the form of rain, hail or snow. It
later on forms the surface run-off water which again joins the sea. This cycle
of evaporation, condensation and precipitation
is called the hydrological
cycle.
All water moves within the
hydrological cycle ensuring that water is a renewable resource.
