Question

Lakes _____.

always contain freshwater
are recharged by precipitation
are usually found near the equator
account for 25% of Earth's freshwater

Answer 1

Lakes are recharged by precipitation

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The best answer for this question is: "Lakes are recharged by precipitation".

By process of elimination, the first choice is wrong because some lakes can be salt water lakes. The third is also wrong because lakes are found in various parts of the world. Also, the fourth is wrong because lakes make up a smaller portion of the Earth's freshwater. The only logical and true answer is the second one because bodies of water are replenished by precipitation or rain.
