Exploring the Water Cycle and Cells

Front

What is the process called when water changes from a liquid to a gas?

Back

Evaporation

Front

Which stage of the water cycle involves water vapor cooling and changing back into liquid droplets?

Back

Condensation

Front

What role does gravity play in the water cycle?

Back

It pulls precipitation down to Earth's surface.

Front

Which of the following is NOT a stage of the water cycle? Evaporation, Condensation, Photosynthesis, Precipitation

Back

Photosynthesis

Front

How does the sun's energy drive the water cycle?

Back

By heating water and causing evaporation

Front

Explain how evaporation and condensation are related in the water cycle.

Back

Evaporation turns liquid water into vapor, while condensation turns vapor back into liquid.

Front

Which of the following best describes the water cycle?

Back

A circular process with no beginning or end

Front

Why is gravity important for the process of precipitation?

Back

It pulls water droplets down from clouds to the ground.

Front

Describe a scenario where the water cycle might be disrupted.

Back

If the sun stopped providing energy, evaporation would decrease.

Front

How might changes in temperature affect the stages of the water cycle?

Back

Higher temperatures could increase evaporation rates.
