Sunny weather is typically associated with a high-pressure system.

Front

What is a sea breeze?

Back

A sea breeze is a wind that blows from the sea to the land, bringing cooler air to the beach, and it usually occurs during the day.

Front

What process do green plants use to control the amount of water stored in their leaves?

Back

Transpiration is the process that allows green plants to control the amount of water stored in their leaves.

Front

What causes water drops on a window to disappear during the day?

Back

Energy from the sun causes the water to evaporate, leading to the disappearance of the drops.

Front

How are evaporation and condensation similar?

Back

Both processes are caused by changes in heat energy.

Front

What is evaporation?

Back

Evaporation is the process by which water changes from a liquid to a gas, usually due to heat.

Front

What is condensation?

Back

Condensation is the process by which water vapor changes back into liquid water, often forming droplets.

Front

What is a land breeze?

Back

A land breeze is a wind that blows from the land to the sea, typically occurring at night when the land cools faster than the sea.

Front

What role does the sun play in the water cycle?

Back

The sun provides energy that drives evaporation, allowing water to change from liquid to vapor.

Front

What is the water cycle?

Back

The water cycle is the continuous movement of water through evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and collection.
