A cycle doesn't have a beginning or end. If you want to say the start is water on the ground, then the last step before it goes to being water on the ground again is precipitation. If you want a real end, it is when the world runs out of water.
Considering the beginning of the cycle as water in the sea, the cycle ends when the water returns to the sea.
The four basic stages are :
- evaporation (water vapor)
- condensation (water droplets or ice crystals in clouds and fog)
- precipitation (rain, ice, snow, hail)
- collection (surface water or ice)
A lot of water evaporates and condenses without entering surface water (lakes, oceans, underground water, snowpack, or glaciers). Similarly, fog can condense, collect on cold surfaces, and become surface water without any actual precipitation.

Why is water used in the water cycle?
Water is used in the WATER cycle, because its the WATER cycle. Without water vegetation and animals would die out. Leading to the end of the world for humans.
What cycle has water as an end product?
the water cycle The water cycle. (It ends as rain - which is water.)
Will the water cycle always be around?
Yes, water cycle will always be around. It will never end.
Is there a specific beginning or end in the water cycle Why or why not?
The water cycle has no starting point. That is because the cycle repeats. For example, first, the sun heats the water on Earth's surface. Then the water evaporates. Next the clouds form. Then there is condensation. Next, there is precipitation which is rain, sleet, snow, and hail. Finally, the precipitation flows into rivers, streams, and oceans. That is when the water cycle repeats all over again. It repeats over and over again. The water cycle is unstoppable.
Does the earth's water cycle end when fresh water drains into the oceans?
No. When water is evaporated into the atmosphere, the salt isn't evaporated with it. The water in the water cycle is always fresh water, and when it drains into the oceans it dimply diludes the ocean from having such a high salt content. The water cycle is always continuous and if it ended, we would all die.

When is the water cycle going toend?
Water cycle is not going to end. It is an on-going process.
Will the water cycle always be around?
Yes, water cycle will always be around. It will never end.
Does the rock cycle ever end?
no it doesn't have a beginning or an end. it will stop only when the earth runs out of water.

What would cause water pressure to drop at only 1 sink?
A clogged aerator on the end of the faucet would cause the water flow to decrease in that faucet.
How long does the water cycle last for and what does it produce?
Water cycle does not end up. It is an on-going process. It produces rain.

What is a process with no beginning or end and ivolves steps that move in a predictable pattern?
A cycle is a process with no beginning or end. Cycles involve steps that move in a predictable pattern. At the end of the cycle, you find that you are back at the beginning.The water cycle is one example of a cycle in nature.
Is the water cycle a renewable resource?
Yes because it will never end.
Would the water cycle exist on earth if the boiling temperature was 200 degrees celsius?
---- ---- No because the sun would just evaporate the water in all the oceans, lakes, ponds, rivers, seas, and streams. After that, it would never snow or rain. The Earth would be a very dry place. So, in the end, the Water cycle would NOT exist on Earth if the boiling temperature was 200 degrees celsius. ---- ----
