Water Cycle

What comes after precipitation in the water cycle?

• The water vapor cools down and changes from a gas to a liquid.

• Clouds begin to fill with water droplets until it gets heavy enough to fall from the clouds.

• Water begins to flow down the side of the mountain and feed back into the ocean.

• Water is heated by the sun's thermal energy and changes from a liquid into a gas.

What is the role of the sun in the water cycle?

• to fill the clouds with water droplets

• to provide thermal energy for evaporation

• to form clouds

• to assist with the groundwater

Analyze the water cycle diagram. What does the letter E represent?

• Water is heated by the sun's thermal energy and changes from a liquid to a gas.

• Water vapor cools and changes from a gas to a liquid, and those water droplets come together to form clouds.

• Rain, snow, sleet. or hail falls from the clouds.

• It represents the movement of water from Earth's surface into the air and back to the surface again.

What is the definition of accumulation?

• Water flows downhill.

• Water collects onto the Earth's surface (puddles, ponds, lakes, oceans, seas).

• It is the process of changing from a liquid to a gas.

• It is the process of changing from a gas to a liquid.

What is the definition of evaporation?

• It's the process of changing from a liquid to a gas by adding thermal energy.

• It's the process of changing from a gas to a liquid by cooling down.

• Water flows down hill.

• Water falls to the Earth's surface as rain, snow, sleet, or hail.
