What percent of Earth surface area is covered with water? [#835]

About 71 percent of the Earth's surface is water-covered, and the oceans hold about 96.5 percent of all Earth's water.

Water has its maximum density at 4° Celsius (39.2° Fahrenheit), in its liquid phase. At this temperature, water's density is 0.9998395 grams per milliliter (g/ml). This is slightly less than 1 g/ml. Water behaves abnormally at this temperature. When water is heated from 0° Celsius, its volume decreases until it reaches 4° Celsius. Above 4° Celsius, water's volume increases as the temperature increases. At 4° Celsius, the cage-like structure of water begins to break and come closer, which decreases the volume and increases the density. Water's solid phase, ice, is more buoyant and forms at the surface of bodies of water, where it freezes downward.

The Equator is the unique imaginary line on Earth where days and nights are of nearly equal length (approximately 12 hours each) every single day of the year. This phenomenon occurs because the Equator is always positioned perpendicular to the Sun's rays, regardless of Earth's tilt on its axis as it orbits the Sun. The line that divides the illuminated half of the Earth from the dark half (the terminator) consistently bisects the Equator almost perfectly, ensuring a consistent balance between daylight and darkness. This contrasts sharply with other latitudes, especially those closer to the poles, where day and night lengths vary significantly with the seasons.

Transpiration is the process by which plants transport water and minerals from the roots to the leaves, where it is used for photosynthesis and other metabolic processes. Excess water is released into the air as water vapor through tiny openings called stomata.

According to available information, significant bank erosion in Majuli, Assam, began after the major earthquake of 1950. This earthquake caused substantial changes in the Brahmaputra riverbed, leading to increased erosion of the island's banks.

According to the Matsya Purana, sage Manu was the first man (and the first human) created by God. Manu was the son of Prajapati (another name of Brahma) and Shatrupa (another name of Saraswati). God created Ananti as the wife of Manu. The rest of the human race originated from Manu and Ananti.
