What would happen to a lake if the water from it is used to irrigate fields?

If water from a lake is used for irrigation, the lake's water level can decrease, potentially leading to decreased habitat for aquatic life, increased concentration of pollutants, and changes in the lake's temperature and water quality. This can have negative impacts on the ecosystem and overall health of the lake.

How does the empting of a large lake fit into the concept of the water cycle?

The emptying of a large lake would be part of the water cycle through the process of evaporation and precipitation. When the water from the lake evaporates, it becomes water vapor in the atmosphere, eventually leading to condensation and precipitation, which can fall back into the lake or elsewhere as rain or snow. This completes the water cycle for that specific body of water.

Process of warm surface water mixing with deep cooler water in a lake?

This process is called lake turnover. During the spring and fall, changes in temperature cause surface water to mix with deeper water layers. This helps distribute nutrients and oxygen throughout the lake, benefiting aquatic life.

When the water comes from the lake what process is it is it condensation or evaporation or precipitation or runoff?

Evaporation. Condensation is when water vapor leaves the gas state and becomes liquid again. Evaporation is when liquid water moves into the gas state. Precipitation is water (as liquid or solid) condenses and falls from clouds. Runoff is solid water turning to liquid. So of those four, only evaporation could be described as water coming from the lake... unless the lake is frozen solid - then it could be runoff.
