water cycle etc...

What part of the water cycle does this picture show?

• condensation
• precipitation
• evaporation

Which of these is an example of precipitation?

• snow
• air
• clouds
• vapor

Which is the opposite of condensation?

• runoff
• evaporation
• precipitation
• transpiration

What follows evaporation during the water cycle? How does this occur?

• Water evaporates into water vapor
• Water vapor condenses and forms a  cloud
• Water precipitates to the ground
• Water runs down into the hydrosphere

What is the water cycle?

• the 3 forms of water
• the movement of water on, above, or below the surface of the Earth
• when water melts
• when clouds form

What is condensation?

• The part of the water cycle when the sun heats up water, turning it from a liquid into water vapor or steam. It rises from the ground into the air.
• The part of the water cycle when the water vapor in the air gets cold. The water turns back into a liquid and forms clouds.
• The part of the water cycle when clouds get heavy and can no longer hold the liquid water. This causes the water to fall from the sky to the earth as rain, snow, sleet, or hail.

What is A?
