The sun's heat provides the evaporation (the rising of the water into the atmosphere). Once it is there it becomes clouds, which are moved by wind. The water is then moved by gravity, pulling it down to earth and along land and rivers to the lowest point, the ocean, where the whole cycle starts again.
There is no other way for water to rise into the atmosphere apart from the sun's energy, so there are no other paths for water to move through the water cycle.
The water cycle is generally simplified to
This can be modified by the realization thatEvaporation may be expanded to include both evaporation and transpiration from plants, periods of long storage in glaciers and as underground water.
There is also some water which is taken out of the cycle by chemical combination to create compounds like carbonates
No water can follow one of several paths that form the detailed cycle.
False
No water can follow one of several paths that form the detailed cycle.
Energy from the sun causes water on the surface to evaporate into water vapor – a gas. This invisible vapor rises into the atmosphere, where the air is colder, and condenses into clouds. Air currents move these clouds all around the earth. ... That's just one path water can take through the water cycle.
Water is bidirectional process. It is cyclic in nature.

False.
The arrows aren't whats actually moving. The arrows display the path that the water molecules take through the ecosystem.
The water in large water bodies evaporate easily through sunlight. The condition of atmosphere also affect the path of watercycle. In cold weather conditions, less amount of water gets evaporated and so on.
