Where do most people get their drinking water from?
A
their sinks
B
rivers and streams
C
the oceans
D
snow and rain
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Once a community system pulls water from a river (and in some cases a well), the water is treated to federal and state required purity levels before being pumped and piped to our houses as clean drinking water. While our tap water is generally safe to drink, threats to rivers and drinking water are increasing.

Detailed explanation-2: -Never drink water from a natural source that you haven’t purified, even if the water looks clean. Water in a stream, river or lake may look clean, but it can still be filled with bacteria, viruses, and parasites that can result in waterborne diseases, such as cryptosporidiosis or giardiasis.
