Question

final assessment - principles of habitat conservation & managem principles of habitat conservation & management 5 of 10 what percentage of fresh water is trapped in glaciers or underground aquifers? ○ 75 ○ 15 ○ 99 ○ 40

Explanation:

To determine the percentage of fresh water trapped in glaciers or underground aquifers, we rely on scientific knowledge about the distribution of fresh water. Approximately 99% of the Earth's fresh water is either in glaciers (including ice caps) or underground aquifers. The other options (75, 15, 40) do not align with this established scientific fact.

Answer:

99 (the option corresponding to 99, e.g., if the option with 99 is the third one, it would be: C. 99)
