Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The primitive oceans formed from volcanoes at the beginning of time. When they blew up they released water vapour into the air. As the earth's crust cooled down, the water vapour condensed forming clouds, and water. The water fell as rain, which went down into the basins forming oceans. Scientists think they formed 4 billion years ago.
