What is the water cycle?
the 3 forms of water
the movement of water on the surface of the Earth
when clouds form
when water melts
When water vapor is cooled and forms droplets-
accumulation
evaporation
precipitation
condensation
When plants give off drops of water it is called
evaporation
condesation
precipitation
transpiration
The sun's energy
is bright
powers the water cycle
changes daily
The part of the atmosphere (air) that is above the earth.
dew
condensation
precipitation
sky
The water cycle has no start or end.
false
true
Evaporation happens when the sun __________ water and turns it into vapor.
lights up
freezes
heats up
cools
If water was heated by a hot plate to model the water cycle, the hot plate represents
the moon
the wind
the sun
When water flows back into the ocean it is called
precipitation
evaporation
run-off
transpiration
when liquid turns into a gas and rises into the air
water cycle
sky
condensation
vapor
water falls from the sky to the ground and returns back to the sky

What is condensation?
The heat from the sun causes the water to turn into vapor.
Tiny drops of water join together to form clouds.
Rain, snow, sleet, or hail that falls to the ground.
The water that falls from the sky is stored in/on the earth.
What is precipitation?
Rain, snow, sleet, or hail that falls to the ground.
The water that falls from the sky is stored in/on the earth.
Tiny drops of water join together to form clouds.
The heat from the sun causes the water to turn into vapor.
The forms of precipitation are: rain, snow, sleet, and hail
