While baking in the oven, moisture and water in the batter heats up as the cake bakes. The heat turns this moisture to steam. Steam expands and rises, trying to escape. The cake contains the steam inside it, so the cake rises and becmes airy. After baking, the steam either escapes or cools (contracts again). This causes the cake to fall.
