70% water and 30% of land. Our body is also composed of 2/3 of water. In other words life without water is INPOSIBLE.Imagine what would happen if amount of water in nature would be drastically reduced? I believe we all know the answer and the consequences. The entire flora‚ fauna and the entire human being will die slowly. Now a day‚ we have a lot of amount of water in our planet but that is a big paradox because a big part from that water is polluted. Basically living the life without water or with

Most water pollutants are eventually carried by rivers into the oceans. In some areas of the world the influence can be traced hundred miles from the mouth by studies using hydrology transport models. Advanced computer models such as SWMM or the DSSAM Model have been used in many locations worldwide to examine the fate of pollutants in aquatic systems. Indicator filter feeding species such as copepods have also been used to study pollutant fates in the New York Bight‚ for example. The highest toxin

Fundamental Science Salt water egg experiment Result Some objects float on top of the ocean‚ and other objects sink to the bottom. Why? In this salt water egg experiment we can find a solution for this question. It was noted that to make the egg float salt is needed to dissolve into fresh water. When the egg was lowered into the fresh water container it started to sink. But when salt was added to the container the egg started to float. Adding salt to the water squishes more molecules
