Water is usually in gas form (water vapor) when in the atmosphere, it forms into liquid and solid cloud particle that grow into size and fall as rain onto earth. Whenever it changes its state from vapor into liquid or solid it releases heat which is called latent heat which plays its role in thunderstorms and hurricanes. Water vapor also plays huge role in earth's heat energy balance.

That water may be at the bottom of the ocean or in the top layers of the atmosphere; it is all a part of the hydrosphere.


When the sun heats the earths water what happens to this water vapor?

Why are plants part of the water cycle?

Plants play a role in the water cycle through a process called transpiration, where they release water vapor from their leaves into the atmosphere. This water vapor eventually condenses to form clouds and precipitation, completing the cycle by returning water to the Earth's surface for plants to use again.
