    Statement 2 - 'Fresh water is essential to all life on Earth' and statement 4 - 'Most of Earth's water is stored in the oceans', are true.

    Explanation:

    Statement 1 - Ponds are generally classified as a source of fresh water. Statement 3 - Only 2.5% out of all the water present on Earth is fresh water. Statement 5 - Oceans indeed are the largest source of water, but unfortunately not freshwater. Ocean water cannot be used for most basic day-to-day operations.
