1.Describe about the Earth resources

A Earth’s resources is something that is found in natural and can be used by people. People do not make Earth’s resources. Earth’s resources include air, water, plants, animals, soil, minerals and fossil fuels. People need Earth’s resources to stay alive.

The ocean is an example of Earth’s resources. Ocean waves be used to generate wave power which is a renewable energy and is important for salt production, desalination and providing habitat for deep water fishes.

The top ten Earth’s resources in the world is water, air, coal, oil, natural gas, phosphorus, other minerals, iron, soil, forests and timber.

Other minerals like gypsum, bauxite, phosphate, bentonite can found in sea beds along the coastal plains. Rare Earth elements like scandium and terbium are used in wind turbines and electronic circuits in smart phones.

Forests and timber provide clean air and the lumber that builds the homes.

Surface water is found on the surface of Earth. Examples of surface water include seas, ponds and rivers. Surface water can be polluted by waste

The mechanism by which life began on Earth is unknown, though many hypotheses have been formulated and are often based on the Miller–Urey experiment. The earliest known life forms are microfossils of bacteria. In July 2016, scientists reported identifying a set of 355 genes believed to be present in the last universal common ancestor (LUCA) of all living
