Answers | Latest Update | 2024/2025 |

What is the water cycle?


✔✔The water cycle is the continuous process by which water circulates between the Earth's

oceans, atmosphere, and land, involving processes like evaporation, condensation, and

precipitation.




What happens during evaporation in the water cycle?


✔✔During evaporation, water from surfaces such as lakes and oceans turns into vapor and rises

into the atmosphere due to heat from the sun.




What is condensation in the context of the water cycle?


✔✔Condensation is the process where water vapor cools and changes back into liquid form,

forming clouds in the atmosphere.




How does precipitation occur in the water cycle?


✔✔Precipitation occurs when water droplets in clouds combine and grow heavy enough to fall

back to Earth as rain, snow, sleet, or hail.

, What role do plants play in the water cycle?


✔✔Plants contribute to the water cycle through a process called transpiration, where they release

water vapor from their leaves into the atmosphere.




What is the difference between the water cycle and the hydrologic cycle?


✔✔The water cycle and the hydrologic cycle refer to the same process of water movement

through the environment, encompassing all forms of water, including groundwater and surface

water.




How does the sun influence the water cycle?


✔✔The sun provides the energy necessary for evaporation, driving the entire water cycle by

warming bodies of water and the atmosphere.




What is groundwater and how does it fit into the water cycle?


✔✔Groundwater is water that infiltrates the soil and rocks beneath the Earth's surface,

contributing to the cycle when it moves back to rivers, lakes, or is taken up by plants.




What happens during the process of infiltration in the water cycle?
