Answer 2

Option D, three

Step-by-step explanation:

Fresh water shares a very small percentage of total water available on planet earth. The 70% of earth’s surface is covered by water. Out of this 70% only 2.5 % is the fresh water rest all is saline water existing in oceans and seas. Even out of the this 2.5% of freshwater, human being has yet been able to utilize only 1% of the fresh water reserve.
