• A pattern that does not repeat.
• A vehicle with 17 wheels.

What is the energy source for the water cycle?

• Plants
• People
• The Moon
• The Sun

What are the three phases of water?

• Solid, Liquid,Golf
• States, Countries, Planets
• Solid Liquid, Gas
• Molecules, Atoms, Compounds

What is Evaporation?

• When the sun heats up water and the water turns into vapor.
• When the sun cools down water and the water turns to ice.
• When water vapor in the air gets cold and forms clouds.
• When water falls to the ground and gets absorbed.

What is Transpiration?

• When the sun heats up water and it turns into vapor.
• Traveling on a bus, train, or in a car.
• It's a form of evaporation where plants release water vapor into the environment. 
• Solid, Liquid, and Gas

What is Condensation?

• Water that falls to Earth's surface like rain, snow, sleet, or hail.
• Where water vapor in the air gets cold and changes back into liquid, forming clouds.

• Water run off stops when it hits trees; ground water flows around trees. 
• I have no clue, but I like to drink water. 

What are the parts of the Water Cycle?

• Solid, Liquid, Gas
• Evaporation/Transpiration, Condensation, Precipitation
• Evaporation/Transpiration, Condensation, Precipitation, Runoff
• Runoff, Groundwater, Transpiration
