What occurs during the process of condensation in the water cycle?

a change in state from gas to liquid

a change in state from solid to liquid

a change in state from liquid to gas

a change in state from liquid to solid

How are evaporation and transpiration similar?

They are both processes in which liquid water is changed into water vapor.

Both processes occur immediately before precipitation in the water cycle.

They both occur in the biosphere.

They both process water in its solid state.

The Sun heats the Earth's water. This warm water turns into a vapor, and rises into the atmosphere, where it cools off. What happens to this water vapor?

The water vapor condenses as it cools, then it forms clouds. It later returns to the Earth as precipitation.

The water vapor evaporates and escapes into space. New water is formed by precipitation.

The water vapor only rises for a very short time, then settles back into the ocean unnoticed.

The water vapor pushes clouds out of the way as it rises. This causes overcast conditions to clear.

The graph shows the distribution of water on Earth's surface. What can be concluded from this image?

Most of the water available on earth is not drinkable

Most of the freshwater on Earth is found in groundwater.

Most of the the water available on Earth is drinkable.

The temperature of the aquarium would greatly increase.

the excess water that isn't absorbed into the ground after it rains

the vapor that is created when the sun's heat warms the Earth's surface

water that is absorbed into the ground and collects in rocks and soil

water droplets that combine to form clouds
