I WONDER - What Are The Stages In The Water Cycle?

The video tutorial explains the four main stages of the water cycle: evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and collection. Evaporation occurs when the sun heats the Earth's surface, causing water to turn into vapor. Transpiration is a similar process in plants. Condensation happens when water vapor cools and forms clouds. Precipitation occurs when clouds become too heavy, resulting in rain, snow, sleet, or hail. Finally, collection is when precipitation gathers in bodies of water, restarting the cycle.
