Earth Science: Water Cycle

Front

Which process in the water cycle rids water of any excess compounds? Options: percolation, transpiration, distillation, evaporation

Back

distillation

Front

Which water cycle process refers to when organisms or plants are "breathing" and releasing small amounts of water vapor?

Back

transpiration

Front

This process in the water cycle creates clouds due to the water droplets sticking together.

Back

condensation

Front

1/2 key parts to the water cycle is the:

Back

Sun

Front

Another key part of the water cycle that allows for continuation is:

Back

Gravity

Front

The water cycle allows for precipitate to:

Back

change states allowing for yearly continuation

Front

The process in the water cycle which allows for water to be driven into the soil by gravity is called:

Back

percolation

Front

Anything falling from the clouds would fall into the broad category of:

Back

precipitate

Front

When precipitate falls from the clouds in any state due to the cloud becoming too "full", the process is known as:

Back

precipitation

Front

Evaporation is possible due to the:

Back

Sun's heat
