~71% of the earth is covered with water, of that ~97% is salt and ~3% is fresh (2% of fresh water is frozen, only about 1% is available)
The hydrosphere contains all the water on the Earth. It refers to all the water, in liquid or frozen form, found on and around the planet, including oceans, glaciers, lakes, rivers, and underground water sources.
A bit less than 2% of the worlds water is frozen. Antarctica accounts for about 80% of the worlds fresh water.
yes
Frozen water typically refers to ice, which is solid water in its frozen state. Ice is made up of water molecules that are arranged in a specific crystalline structure. It is commonly found in glaciers, icebergs, and in frozen bodies of water such as lakes and ponds during the winter months.
Approximately 69% of all the fresh water on Earth is ice, with the majority of it being found in the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets. This frozen water accounts for about 10% of the planet's land area.
The three types of water on Earth's surface are saltwater found in oceans and seas, freshwater found in rivers, lakes, and groundwater, and frozen water in the form of ice caps and glaciers.
Snow is frozen water vapor that falls to Earth as flakes.
It used to be. Scientists have found frozen water on Mars.
Yes
Frozen water vapor that falls to earth as flakes is called snow.
About 1.7% of Earth's total water is frozen, primarily found in glaciers and ice caps. This frozen water is mostly located in Antarctica and Greenland, with smaller amounts in mountain glaciers around the world. While the percentage may seem small, it represents a significant portion of the planet's freshwater supply.
The answer depends on the context: Do you want: frozen water as a percentage of all water on earth? frozen water as a percentage of all matter on earth? frozen water as a percentage of all water in the solar system, or beyond? frozen water as a percentage of all matter in the solar system, or beyond? There are other possible interpretations.
For one the Earth and has an ozone layer and Mars does not. Also, the Earth can have water in all three states: liquid, gas, and solid. On Mars only frozen water has been found.

Frozen water; ICE
Water, in liquid form (as opposed to frozen solid), is found in the sea, in the air as clouds or falling rain, on land as stream, rivers, lakes, etc.
