Answer:

d. 90%

Step-by-step explanation:

About 90% of earth's fresh water is currently inaccessible. Because large amount of fresh is stored in frozen form. Antarctica and Arctic regions are covered with fresh water ice sheet, about 75% of fresh water is stored in these ice sheet. Rest freshwater is found in ponds, lakes, rivers, and groundwater.
