This part of the water cycle is when the water is absorbed back into the ground flowing through cracks in the soil and rocks
Infiltration
This cycle is the basis of life as we know it. Our bodies contain a lot of it. The biggest part of the cycle happens in the atmosphere?

This zone is overheated for most of the year, and typically stays hot. We call this zone
