10 percent of ocean water is fresh water-true or false?
true
Is water evaporating from the ocean?
Yes, it is true.
Is it true that water is constantly evaporating from the surface of the ocean?
Yes, it is true.
The acidic ocean water wil erode the calcium carbonate shells true or false?
Yes, it is true that the acidic ocean water will erode the calcium carbonate shells.
Tides refer to bulges in ocean water?
yes its true
Is it true evaporation is an inexpensive and efficient method of removing salt from ocean water?
Yes, it is true.
True or false places where rivers pour fresh water into the ocean have low salinity?
Salinity is a measure of how salty water is. Ocean water is more salty in some places than in others. The answer is yes, places where rivers pour fresh water into the ocean have low salinity because fresh water is normally cold and in warm areas, ocean water evaporates quicker. When this happens, salt is left behind and the ocean water has a higher salinity.
Water is moved toward shore by a wave true or false?
True. Waves carry water towards the shore by transporting energy from the open ocean to the coastal areas.
Does thermal energy cause water at the ocean surface to evaporate?
Yes, it is true.
True or false Currently more water is evaporated from the ocean than is returned to the ocean by precipitation?
Precipitation also falls on landforms and has to work its way down to the sea. Thus in a broad sense, True but in a narrow sense, False. I would go with the broad sense and answer TRUE. Phew !!!
True or false-the ocean contains more than 90 percent of the water on earth?
True. The ocean contains more than 97% of Earth's water, with the remaining 3% found in glaciers, ice caps, rivers, lakes, and underground sources.
Which is not true about a wave in the open ocean?
The waves in the open ocean are usually caused by the friction of the winds over the open ocean of water. The waves in the ocean vary in strength and size depending with the speed of wind and the friction with the surface of water.
