80 percent evaporates from the ocean. Incorrect !!! All water in the water cycle of Earth evaporates from oceans and works its way back to the ocean. Evaporation from rivers, lakes, ponds etc. is a temporary stage of the overall trip back to its origin in the oceans.
Most water is evaporated from oceans.
The oceans are primarily made of water. This water contains dissolved salts and other minerals, which give the oceans their characteristic salinity.
the oceans
The energy in the water cycle primarily comes from the sun. Solar radiation heats the Earth's surface, causing water to evaporate from oceans, lakes, and rivers. This evaporation process provides the energy needed for the water cycle to occur.

The volatility of the oceans...
The prevailing theory of the origin of life on earth posits that it began in the oceans.
Oceans have salt water.
In general a body of water with the word "sea" in its name probably contains salt water, but it's not an ironclad guarantee. For example, the Sea of Galilee is fresh water.
cause we have water without the oceans we will not have water
Under-GROUND oceans? Probably not; the current estimates for Europa indicate that the surface is probably ice, with perhaps oceans beneath the ice. If the oceans are made of water rather than some more exotic liquid, then there's at least a possibility that life might exist in that ocean.
oceans provide fresh water for earth through the water cycle
