hydrologic (water) cycle

• the path water takes, and the changes it goes through, as it cycles through the environment.

• the process where plants absorb water through the roots and then gives off water vapor through pores in their leaves.

• excess water, not absorbed by the soil, that flows downhill.

• the change of water from a liquid state to a gas state, due to an increase in temperature.
