When water is heated in the ocean by the sun and turns into water vapor.

• Condensation

• Transpiration

• Evaporation

Forms of precipitation are

• only snow

• rain, snow, and hail

• only rain

When water flows back into the ocean it is called

• run-off

• precipitation

• transpiration

Most evaporation in the water cycle happens in oceans because

• they are the largest bodies of water

• they have ice in them

• they contain salt

The ________________ is the driving force of the Earth's weather

• moon

• sun

• stars

When drops of water fall down from the sky...

• evaporation

• condensation

• precipitation

When tiny droplets of water form in the air it is called....

• precipitation

• condensation

• evaporation

Precipitation occurs because

• the droplets evaporate in the air

• the droplets are too light for the air to hold

• the droplets are too heavy for the air to hold

The sun's energy

• changes daily

• directly causes evaporation

• heats the ocean before evaporation

When water vapor is cooled and forms droplets...
