Answer:

Explanation:

1 is true

2 is false

3 is true

4 is true

5 is false

That is what I got from researching.

Only about 3% of the water in the Earth is fresh water and about 75 % of the fresh water on Earth is frozen in ice sheets.  

• The most vital element present on the Earth is water. All the living beings are dependent on it.  

• Water is present in the majority of the Earth, however, of this only 3% of the water is freshwater, the rest is saline and undrinkable.  

• Of this 3%, the 75 percent of the freshwater is present in the form of ice and glaciers in the polar region.  

• The remaining 24 percent is the groundwater and the rest 1 percent includes the waters of rivers, lakes, and ponds.  

• The prime source of usable freshwater is present in the trapped form in the ice and glaciers.  

Thus, the correct statements are 1st and 3rd.
