a garden showing the release of water vapor into the air by plants
c)
a decorative fountain overflowing with water as the raindrops fill its basin
d)
a small, drying puddle as the sun heats the water and changes it to water vapor
2.
Select the model that correctly shows how convection currents occur in water.
a)
Model A
b)
Model B
c)
Model C

Model D
3.

Figure 1 shows a current of water in the North Atlantic Ocean. Figure 2 shows a pot of water heated on a stove. Select ALL of the statements that accurately describe the processes shown in these figures.

a)
A. In both figures convection is occurring.
b)
B. In Figure 1 the warm water is more than likely coming in from the equator.
c)
C. In both figures the movement of water is driven by heat.
d)
D. In both figures the water is heated from the deepest part of the water.
e)
E. In Figure 2 no current is created because there is not enough room for the cycle to continue.
