What does each part of the water cycle do?

Answer 1

The water cycle is a continuous cycle. Water that is collected on the earth in lakes, rivers, ponds, oceans, etc. evaporates into the air, where it condensates into clouds. When enough water condensates into clouds, the water falls back to the earth as precipitation. The precipitation is absorbed into the ground and collects in lakes, oceans, etc. The cycle starts over.

Answer 2

evaporation: when the sun heats up the water and turns into steams.

percipititation: Precipitation occurs when so much water has condensed that the air cannot hold it anymore. The clouds get heavy and water fall .CondensationWater vapor in the air gets cold and changes back into liquid, forming clouds. This is called condensation.

Answer 3

There are three major parts :

1) evaporation of surface water

2) condensation into clouds

3) precipitation to the surface

There are two other steps that may occur:

surface and subsurface runoff

accumulation as bodies of water.

The water cycle in plants includes transpiration (a form of evaporative cooling).

Answer 4

Evaporation: Water from oceans, lakes, and rivers turns into water vapor due to heat from the sun. Condensation: Water vapor cools and turns back into liquid water droplets to form clouds. Precipitation: Water droplets in clouds become too heavy and fall to the ground as rain, snow, sleet, or hail. Runoff: Excess water flows over the land and back into oceans, lakes, and rivers, completing the water cycle.

Answer 5

The process of evaporation of water from different media is similar. This water then falls back as rain.
