Name one part of the rock cycle.
What are: Melting, Cooling and Crystalization, Weathering and Erosion, Heat and Pressure, and Compaction and Cementation?
Evaporation is where water turns into water vapor (a gas) and it rises in the air
Condensation is when the water vapor turns back into a liquid.
Precipitation is when the liquid falls back to the ground as rain, hail, sleet, or snow.
This layer of earth causes plate tectonics to move.
