Dew
Dew drops form on leaves and flowers primarily due to condensation. During the night, temperatures often drop, leading to the cooling of surfaces like leaves and petals. When the air near these surfaces cools, it can no longer hold as much moisture, causing water vapor to condense into tiny droplets, which appear as dew. This process is influenced by factors such as humidity and air temperature.
== == Animals that SLEEP at night (and are awake in the DAY) are called DIURNAL. Animals that are awake at night and sleep during the day are NOCTURNAL. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------
The length of day and night is equal at the Vernal and Autumnal equinox.
Animals that are active during both day and night are called crepuscular. These animals are most active during twilight hours when there is a mixture of light and darkness. Some examples include rabbits, deer, and certain types of birds.
Dew forms in the morning because at night, the air near the ground cools down. When the air temperature drops below the dew point temperature, water vapor in the air condenses into tiny water droplets on surfaces like grass and leaves, creating dew.

This process is called dew formation. Dew forms when the surface cools down during the night, causing water vapor in the air to condense and collect as droplets on cooler surfaces.
Rock surfaces expand during the day due to the heat absorbed from sunlight, causing the molecules to vibrate and move further apart. As the temperature drops at night, the rock surfaces contract as the molecules lose energy and move closer together. This cycle of expansion and contraction can cause stress on the rock material, eventually leading to weathering and erosion.
The air near the ground cools to the DEW POINT.
The sun provides warmth during the day, while the temperature drops during the night when the sun is gone.

The white coating of ice crystals you see on the ground after a cold night is called frost. When the temperature drops below freezing, moisture in the air freezes onto surfaces like grass, leaves, and pavement, creating a frosty layer.
Water droplets that form on grass during the night are called dew. Dew occurs when moisture in the air condenses on cooler surfaces, such as grass blades, as temperatures drop overnight. This process is influenced by humidity and temperature, leading to the formation of tiny droplets that can be seen in the early morning.
You get cold at night because your metabolic rate drops and also because the outside temperature often drops at night.
Homonym means sound the same. A homonum for dew (moisture) is do (an action verb).
