Only water not present in oceans is available for living things to use.

Almost all of the water on earth is salt water in oceans.
So I agree with your answer

ur welcome s;) is right. THANK YOU!!!!!!!

Yes, you are correct. Option 1 explains why water is a limited resource. Water is present on Earth in a fixed amount that does not change. Although the Earth is often referred to as the "Blue Planet" because of its abundant water resources, only a small percentage of that water is fresh and available for use by living things. The majority of the Earth's water is in the form of saltwater in the oceans, which is not suitable for direct use by humans, animals, or plants. As a result, the availability of fresh water, which is essential for survival, is limited.

1 is not a good answer.
