What is transpiration?
NO
When water evaporates from the leaves of plants
When any form of liquid goes from the atmosphere to the ground
Similar to condensation
Why can't all water evaporate?
Because some water soaks into the ground (infiltration)
We never studied this
Because the animals drink it all
All of the above
Which of the following is the process of making water into clouds
Evaporation
Vibrato
Condensation
Percolation
What is Percolation?
The downwards movement of water through soil and rock due to gravity
When water turns into water vapor
When water evaporates from the leaves of plants
What part of the water cycle comes after "precipitation"?
Evaporation
Run-off
Infiltration
Solar Radiation
What is water that fills the cracks and spaces in underground soil and rock layers?
Water that flows across the land and enters rivers and streams. It eventually flows into lakes and oceans.
The water evaporates from the leaves of plants and moves into the air
This process occurs when air cools and the vapor collects into liquid form
water that fills the cracks and spaces in underground soil and rock layers
What is solar radiation?
The process that occurs when any and all forms of water particles fall from the atmosphere and reach the ground
Water that flows across the land and enters rivers and streams. It eventually flows into lakes and oceans.
when the sun heats water up and it becomes vapor in the air
energy from the sun
What is an "aquifer"?
a layer "permeable" rock, sand or gravel that hold water
when air cools and the vapor collects into liquid form
water evaporates from the leaves of plants and moves into the air

Solar radiation
Run-off
What makes water less salty?
