Jen designed an investigation to determine the conditions that lead to the cycling of water. She started by drawing the diagram shown. Which statement best describes how the Sun affects the process found at Y?
The Sun causes water to dissolve into the atmosphere where it forms clouds. Water falls from the clouds in the process of precipitation.
The Sun causes water to dissolve into the atmosphere where it forms clouds. Water falls from the clouds in the process of condensation.
The Sun causes water to evaporate into the atmosphere where it forms clouds. Water falls from the clouds in the process of precipitation.
The Sun causes water to evaporate into the atmosphere where it forms clouds. Water falls from the clouds in the process of condensation.
The picture below shows the polar ice caps in the Arctic sea. What will happen to the ice caps if the Sun's energy gets stronger?
The ice will become much colder, causing clouds to form less rainfall.
The ice will become water, then the water will become vapor.
The ice will become much harder, causing clouds to form more rainfall.
The ice will become vapor, then the vapor will become water.
The picture below shows a model of the water cycle in an aquarium. What would happen if a second lamp were added to the experiment?
There would be less condensation produced.
The clay would soak up more of the water.
The ice would melt slower, producing fewer drops of water.
The ice would melt and water would evaporate faster.
John notices the air pressure is low when he looks at the barometer. Which type of weather is most likely to occur?
clear skies and dry conditions
cloudy skies and rainy conditions
sunny skies and cool temperatures
partly cloudy and warm temperatures

Chris noticed a high-pressure system in the weather forecast for Monday and Tuesday. Which type of weather conditions are most likely for those two days?
clear and sunny
cold and stormy
cloudy and rainy
warm and stormy
How would water vapor cooling and forming clouds impact the water cycle?
by increasing runoff
by increasing evaporation
by increasing precipitation
by increasing transpiration
