Did you see that?
00:00:00
Look how the water flows from the top of this mini hill and gets collected here.
00:00:11
This looks like a river and this looks like a lake.
00:00:18
Are you getting confused?
00:00:23
Don't be.
00:00:26
Come, I'll tell you more about the water bodies on earth.
00:00:28
Zoom in.
00:00:32
Ocean.
00:00:34
Oceans cover more than 70% of the Earth's surface.
00:00:36
But that's too much water, isn't it?
00:00:41
Then why do we have water problems all around?
00:00:44
Yuck!
00:00:50
Well, because ocean water is salty and not safe to drink.
00:00:52
The oceans of the world are the Arctic,
00:00:57
Atlantic,
00:01:00
Pacific,
00:01:01
Indian and the Antarctic Ocean the Pacific Ocean is the largest and covers
00:01:02
around 30% of the Earth's surface see the sea is found where the land meets
00:01:10
the ocean it is smaller than the ocean and is actually a part of it just like
00:01:17
how the Mediterranean Sea is a part of the Atlantic Ocean it also has the most
00:01:25
confusing spelling river a river is a strip of water that flows through many
00:01:30
places it begins in mountains or hills where melted snow and rain water gets
00:01:39
collected the beginning of a river is called the source and the end is known
00:01:45
as the mouth and there's some good news for you
00:01:52
Rivers contain fresh water.
00:01:57
Well, by fresh water I mean water that is suitable for you to drink.
00:02:00
River Nile is the world's longest river which passes through seven countries, Egypt being one of them.
00:02:09
Lake
00:02:18
A lake is a large area of water surrounded by land.
00:02:18
Lakes are formed when water finds its way into a basin.
00:02:24
It could be through rain or underground water.
00:02:28
Hmm, it will be quite sad for you to know that lakes need a continuous source of new water.
00:02:34
Otherwise, they tend to dry up.
00:02:41
Whoa! There you go!
00:02:47
Sometimes, lakes are formed when meteors hit the earth.
00:02:51
So, it's not always bad when a big bulging meteor crashes on the earth's surface.
00:02:54
Trivia Time!
00:03:02
The Dead Sea is not a sea, but a lake.
00:03:04
The reason why it's called dead, because it contains high amount of salt water and no living thing can survive in it.
00:03:08
So, let me enjoy my nap.
00:03:17
It's time for me to zoom out.
00:03:20
So tune in next time for some more fun facts.
