Homework #2

ISAS #1 1, 2,8-13,17
  1. No, Jimmy Hendricks did use water, because the quantity of liquid in this container is insignificant when compared with the quantity of water used to make the container and possibly to irrigate the fruit trees and process the fruit juice. 
  2. Water is used to make a loaf of bread by growing and processing the various components of each food. 
  3. The worlds intake of water overtime has significantly increased, because the water unused by humans flows back into large bodies of water, and evaporates into the air. This is called the hydrologic cycle.
  4.  -Glaciers  -Water vapor  -Oceans  -Rivers
  5.  Because of the fact that only about 10% of water in the US goes to humans, and the rest to large bodies of water. Which justifies the previous quote.   
  6. 77%
  7. Glaciers and Ice Caps: 5.908/Lakes: 0.0252
  8. Water is a renewable energy, so it is recycled over the course of many years. 
  9. The discrepancy comes from the fact that the 1st number might be the mean, and the second number might have been all of the values added together, before the average.
