Preciptiaciones

The video tutorial explains precipitation as a form of water falling from the sky, including snow, rain, sleet, freezing rain, and hail. It highlights precipitation's role in the water cycle, which consists of evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and collection. Evaporation occurs when the sun heats water bodies, turning water into vapor. This vapor rises, cools, and forms clouds during condensation. When clouds become heavy, precipitation occurs, returning water to the earth. The cycle concludes with collection, where water gathers in rivers, lakes, and oceans, or is absorbed into the soil, ready to begin the cycle anew.
