Most of earth's surface water is in the oceans. The second largest bodies are the polar ice caps. Groundwater (water below the surface) exceeds that in all earth's freshwater lakes, rivers, and streams--which account for the remainder of earth's surface water.
Large landmasses on the earth's surface are the continents.These are (in no particular order):AfricaAsiaAustraliaEuropeNorth AmericaSouth AmericaAntarctica
Estimates vary, but somewhere between 70 and 75 percent of the Earth's surface is covered in water. This does not include the polar icecaps. === ===
it is 75percent
The previous answer was incorrect. NOW the Earth's surface is covered with ice, but during the most recent ice age, NEARLY 30% of the Earth was covered by ice!I'm a little bold
The surface of the earth is covered by water for the most part. However, there are countries on many of the earth's landmasses. The percentage of countries that have mountains in them is approximately 30 percent.
About 71 percent of the Earth's surface is water-covered.
75%
About 70 percent of the earth's surface is covered with water. Our body contains about 70 percent of water too.
It's covered with less than 5% of ice.
70 percent
Yes, approximately 71% of the Earth's surface is covered by ocean. Oceans play a critical role in regulating climate, providing habitats for marine life, and supporting global ecosystems. They are also a major source of food, energy, and transportation for humans.
About 70% of the surface is covered by water.
76 percent
Approximately 67.8% of earth's surface is covered by salt water while only 3% is covered by fresh water. In total, the earth's surface is covered by 70.8% of water.
About 71 % of the surface is covered by water. The rest (29 %) is land.
Approximately, 70 percent of the Earth's surface is covered by oceans and seas.
