Our air contains water vapor. We refer to it as, "Humidity". Warmer air can contain more water vapor than cooler air.
So - let's say you have nice, warm air, and there is high humidity. Then you cool that air. Say, cold air moves into your area and cools that nice, warm air. It is logical to say that the newly-cooled air cannot hold as much water. So, the water leaves the air as water vapor, and becomes little drops of water. Anything near these new little drops attract the drops so that they attach to the nearby material. The places that the cold air touches the warm air, creating rain, is called a , "Squall Line". (This also works when warm, moist air blows into an area that has cooler air.)
Sometimes water vapor high in the air (clouds) is cooled. The little water droplets attach to nearby dust particles in the air. These little drops touch other drops until they are so heavy that they fall fast toward Earth. (The ground). We call this, rain, snow, sleet, or hail.
Other times, leaves, grass, your car windows and paint, and other things attract the little droplets of water, and we can actually see them as they touch other droplets and make bigger drops. This is called, "Dew".
You can also see "Dew" on cold pop cans or bottles, only in that case, the water droplets are called, "Condensation", which is also the real name for rain and dew. The water droplets that form - from rain all the way to pop bottles - is called the "Condensate".
they get it from leaves and dew
The morning dew glistened on the grass as the sun rose.
No, the dew is not enough to get the job done. The roots needs a good drink. Dew only really mists the leaves.
Dew over time sinks into the leaves of the plant and works to slowly decompose it until it wilts and dies.
they drink the dew of leaves
Dew forming on grass is called "grass dew" or simply "dew." Dew is moisture that condenses on surfaces overnight when the temperature drops, and it is commonly seen on grass, leaves, and other surfaces in the early morning.
Typically on any cooling surface in a humid environment. For example, leaves warmed by the sunlight during the day, will collect condensed moisture (dew) as they cool during the evening. When the sun rises and re-heats the leaves, the dew will eventually evaporate.
Dew is Condensed Water Vapour so LIQUID
Yes, they sip water or dew from leaves and flower petals.
Dew forms on leaves and grass early in the morning when the temperature drops and reaches the dew point, causing water vapor in the air to condense and form water droplets. The cool surface of the leaves and grass allows the moisture in the air to condense and collect in the form of dew drops.
They eat mulberry leaves and drink water or dew.
The drops of water found on leaves early in the morning are called dew. Dew forms when moisture in the air condenses and settles on surfaces overnight as temperatures cool.
