This document discusses the three main sources of water: seawater, freshwater, and groundwater. It provides details on the characteristics and uses of each water source. Seawater is found in oceans and seas, contains salt, and is used for transportation, recreation, and as a habitat. Freshwater comes from rain and small bodies of water, and is used for household activities, irrigation, recreation, and transportation. Groundwater is found underground, is considered the cleanest source, and contains minerals needed by humans. The document includes activities to match water sources with their uses and identify sources based on descriptions.

Explain the use of water from different sources in the context of daily activities. S4ES- IVb-2
Introduction: Water comes from different sources. It may come from open or closed sources. It may also come from a small body of water or a big body of water. It is a renewable resource because of water cycle. Three main sources of water:
1. SEAWATER or SALTY found in the seas and oceans. It contains plenty of
salt. It is called HARDWATER. As routes Seawater serves as the habitat of aquatic plants and animals. Seas and oceans are used for recreation such as swimming, boating and windsurfing. They are also used a for routes locals and international transportation and marine navigation.
2. FRESHWATER – also called as surface water. It is found in open but small
bodies of water like, rivers, lakes, creeks and ponds. It comes mostly from rain. Freshwater is used for cleaning, washing, bathing, preparing food and other household uses. It is also used to water plants and given to animals to drink. It is also used for recreation- swimming or boating. They can be serve as routes of transportation and irrigation for farms and livestock watering and in factories.
3. GROUNDWATER – found beneath the earth’s surface. it comes from water
that seeps into the ground called water table. It is a safe source of water- cleanest source of water and contains plenty of dissolved minerals which needed by the human body. Science 4 Worksheet No.: 2 __________________________________________________________________________________
