Question
Discuss how water is replenished in sea
Advertisements
Solution
Water is replenished in sea by rainfall or through run off from ground water that ends up in rivers and ultimately the sea. The water that evaporates from the sea forms clouds. These clouds increase in size and consist of enormous water droplets. When they get big enough, the water is released from them in the form of rain.
