Solution

The correct option is A 0.3%
On Earth, only 3% of water is fresh water.
Most of the water is in the form of ice caps, glaciers and groundwater, while all lakes, rivers and swamps combined only for a very small part that is 0.3% of the earth's total freshwater reserves.

Hence, option A is correct.
