The Water is one of the most important components of life on our planet, because almost all beings Living beings need it to survive, that is, in addition to food, water is relevant for any living being.
And it is also a very important at the behest of our planet earth since it is present in a great proportion, 71% of water covers the earth's surface so that we get an idea of the enormous importance that it has in our world.
Oceans, glaciers, lakes, seas, rivers, and underground water reservoirs they are among others those that represent that indicated percentage. Ice and snow are also included in this vast group because we remember that water can appear in different states, such as: liquid, solid and gaseous, water ocean, snow and clouds, respectively.
Now, the largest amount of water on our planet is present, but in its liquid state, in the great masses of water such as the oceans and seas. Then, and to a much lesser extent, the water that is found under the earth appears, and the surface is that containing streams and lakes, that of ice in glaciers and steam in clouds of the
atmosphere.And what remains of the water will be found, as we have already said, in the living beings that swarm the earth, animals, planets, human beings, among others.
Meanwhile, that group of water elements that are present on the planet are called as hydrosphere. All together they form a system that has been arranged above and below the earth and exerting its influence.
The indicated changes in water status and the water cycle are responsible for the circulation of the same on the planet. Through the process of water cycle, the water will pass through the various sections of the hydrosphere, generating that coming and going so important for the subsistence of the entire planet.
