plasma

c)

vapor

d)

foam

5.

How can matter change from one state to another?

a)

Matter can only change state through chemical reactions.

b)

Matter cannot change states under any conditions.

c)

Matter can change from one state to another through processes like melting, freezing, evaporation, condensation, and sublimation.

d)

Clouds are made of dust and dirt particles.

12.

What is the water cycle?

a)

The water cycle is the continuous movement of water through evaporation, condensation, and precipitation.

b)

The water cycle is the method of filtering water through soil.

c)

The water cycle refers to the way water is used in agriculture.
