Question

saltwater
much of the water on earth is saltwater. the saltwater that is in earths oceans covers more than two - thirds of our planet. the pacific ocean is the largest ocean on earth. it is so big you can actually fit all of the land on earth inside of it!
most of the salt in water comes from rocks. when the water in rivers runs over rocks, the salt from the rocks gets carried with the flow of the river and into the ocean. some seas and lakes also contain saltwater. the great salt lake in utah is one of the worlds saltiest bodies of water.
you might think that salt water isnt important because people dont drink it. ocean water actually helps keep the planet from being very cold in some places and very hot in other places. the sun warms ocean water. this warms the air and land around it.
resources we find in the ocean are very important. fish and other ocean animals and plants are food for millions of people. we also get many useful products from the ocean such as oil.
it is important to know that it is not safe to drink saltwater. it has too much salt in it. if we have too much salt in our bodies, we could become dehydrated, and itll cause us to become even more thirsty. if you are ever in a situation where you need to drink saltwater, you will need to boil and distill it first.
