Has the amount of water on earth change since the beginning of time?
no
Does the amount of water on earth change why or why not?
For the most part, the amount of water on Earth stays the same. The only way for the amount of Earth's water to increase would be for it to come from outer space. Not coincidentally, this is precisely what happens. Comets, made of dust and ice, enter the Earth's atmosphere and melt from the friction of the air as it plummets towards Earth's surface. The resulting water is then added to the already existing water in the earth's atmosphere (clouds), in bodies of water (oceans, lakes, etc.), and the water trapped in the form of ice (glaciers, icebergs, etc.)
Is the amount of water on Earth always changing or it is a constant amount?
water on the earth remains constant.man :)
The total amount of water on earth is?
The earth is composed of 3/4 water and 1/4 land.
How does the amount of water on the earth change over time?
The amount of water on the Earth doesn't change very much at all. Trace quantities are dissociated into hydrogen and oxygen by sunlight, or launched into space on our various space craft. Water hardly ever arrives on the Earth from space, but a medium sized comet could deliver billions of gallons of water (and knock our civilization into a new Dark Age) if it collided with the Earth. Many scientists believe that cometary impacts may have provided the majority of Earth's water when our planet was still young.

no
How much does water grow on the earth each year?
The amount of water on earth does not change. Some of it may become ice, or melt into water, but the global amount is always the same.
Does the total amount of water on earth remain fairly constant or change regularly?
fairly constant

Is the amount of water in earth's atmosphere and on earth always the same?
Yes - the Earth has a finite amount of water on it. This water cycles between the oceans and the atmosphere.
How does the amount of water on earth change as a result of the water cycle?
To tell the truth the amount of water on earth never really changes. The water cycle just renews our water so it is safe for a drinking use. Other than that the only way we can gain more water on earth is from comets and their speed which melts and brings water with them as they pass through the atmosphere. But basically the water cycle does not effect the water on earth. Your welcome.
