Correct Answer: Glaciers


Solution : The correct option is Glaciers .

Large, thick volumes of ice called glaciers occur on land when snowfall is compacted into ice over a long period. Glaciers hold around 75 per cent of the freshwater on Earth. As a result, glacier ice is both the largest freshwater reserve and the second-largest body of water on Earth. With 96% of the Earth's water covering more than two-thirds of its surface, the oceans constitute the world's biggest water reserve.
