Simple answer: They don't. Clouds ARE water - tiny, tiny droplets of water just like fog. If colder air moves into a cloud, it causes there to be even more water droplets forming. When the droplets get close enough together, they start touching and turning themselves into even larger droplets.

Then the "even larger" water droplets touch, and make water drops . . . at some point in this process, the water droplets grow large enough that they are too heavy to stay where they are, and then they fall to the ground. This falling to the ground is what we call, "Rain".

What does water do from the sea to make clouds?

the water from the sea evaporates to the sky. when it goes higher up, it condenses to form water doplets. it would then gather together to make clouds.


Do clouds grows and develop?

yes because water evaporates from bodies of water and when it rains some of the water evaporated and helps make new clouds:)


What does clouds have to do with water?

Clouds have to do with water because water vapor precipitates into the clouds.


What is the function of the clouds?

Clouds are condensed water vapor and their purpose is to make rain.


Why do clouds make shapes in the sky?

Clouds make shapes in the sky as water molecules gather and the wind blows and moves and spreads the cloud out. The thicker the cloud the more dense the water molecules are.


What role does evaporation play in the water cycle?

Evaporation moves the water from the earth's surface up into the atmosphere. It helps to make the water form clouds from water vapour and condensation. It helps to convert the water vapours (its gas form) to water (its liquid form).


Are all clouds filled with water?

Clouds are masses of condensed water vapor, therefore, all clouds are water.


What are 3 components for clouds to form?

3 components are water, air and carbon dioxide which can all join together to make clouds


Can light destroy clouds?

Light itself cannot destroy clouds. However, intense sunlight can increase evaporation, causing clouds to dissipate as the water droplets that make up the clouds turn into water vapor. Additionally, strong sunlight can also help to disperse clouds by breaking up their formation.


How do clouds go away?

Clouds can disappear when the water droplets that make up the cloud evaporate into the air. This can happen if the air becomes warmer, causing the water droplets to turn into water vapor. Wind can also blow clouds away by moving them to a different location.


What form is the water in when it is in the clouds?

Water in clouds is in gaseous form.


What are clouds out of?

clouds are made out of water
