Answer: Option D

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Annual world precipitation is 4.46 × 1020 g.
Precipitation is any product of the condensation of atmospheric water vapour that falls from clouds due to gravitational pull.
The yearly precipitation averaged over the whole Earth is about 100 cm, but this is distributed very unevenly. The regions with the highest rainfall are found in the equatorial zone and the monsoon area of Southeast Asia.
