Importance of Water Supply In Our Life

Explanation:

Which po no, some of the doctors advised us to drink at least 6-8 glasses of water that is
equivalent to 2 liters to maintain nga po ung 70% ng ating water sa ating katawan. Where water
helps our body to keep its normal temperature. Lubricate and cushion joints. Protect your spinal
cord and other sensitive tissues. Get rid of wastes through urination, perspiration, and bowel
movements.

Water Supply

Ito ay ang supply ng tubig po kung saan ito ang pinagmumulan, paraan, o proseso ng
pagbibigay ng tubig na usually daw po sa ating mga tao or in our community.

Consolidated rock may consist of such materials as sandstone, shale, granite, and basalt.
Unconsolidated sediment contains granular material such as sand, gravel, silt, and clay.

The unsaturated zone, immediately below the land surface, contains water and air in the open
spaces, or pores. The saturated zone, a zone in which all the pores and rock fractures are filled
with water, underlies the unsaturated zone. The top of the saturated zone is called the water
table.

Treatment Plant/Water Treatment Plant

Water treatment plants can use a process called ultrafiltration in addition to or instead of
traditional filtration. During ultrafiltration, the water goes through a filter membrane with very
small pores. This filter only lets through water and other small molecules (such as salts and tiny,
charged molecules).

Water Storage Tank

A water storage tank holds clean water from your reverse osmosis system or other filter systems
until you're ready to use it.

Ocean Acidification

Because of human-driven increased levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, there is more
CO2 dissolving into the ocean. The ocean's average pH is now around 8.1, which is basic (or
alkaline), but as the ocean continues to absorb more CO2, the pH decreases and the ocean
becomes more acidic.
Like a sponge, our oceans are absorbing increasing amounts of carbon dioxide from the
atmosphere. This exchange helps regulate the planet’s atmospheric carbon dioxide
concentrations, but comes at a cost for the oceans and sea life, particularly shellfish such as
commercially valuable oysters and clams. Ocean acidification is best known for its
osteoporosis-like effects on shellfish, which makes building and maintaining shells difficult for
these creatures. Acidification also affects other species vital to the marine ecosystem, including
reef-building corals and pteropods (tiny snails eaten by numerous species such as fish and
whales).
