Solution

The correct option is B Water is recycled through a natural phenomenon
The amount of water on the earth remains almost constant due to the water cycle. The water cycle is a natural continuous process due to which water is circulated from oceans and other water bodies to the atmosphere due to evaporation. The water vapours then undergo condensation and form clouds. Then the water re-enters the land in the form of rain (precipitation), and also flows back to oceans through rivers. This cycle keeps fresh water available for use of all living beings.
