_____________________ is water released from clouds in the form of rain, freezing rain, sleet, snow, or hail. It is the primary connection in the water cycle that provides for the delivery of atmospheric water (water in the air) to the Earth. Most ________________ falls as rain.

• Precipitation

• Surface runoff

• Evaporation
