Water in its gas form.
What is water vapor?
This is an example of how gravity works in the rock cycle.
What is erosion (deposition and layering is also acceptable)?
Clouds form when ________________ takes place.
Condensation
When the water vapor changes to a liquid it is called __________.
Condensation
Precipitation is caused by this energy.
What is gravity?
Infiltration, Precipitation, Run-off, or Evaporation-This does NOT use gravity as an energy source.
What is evaporation?
Evaporation,condensation,and precipitation are all parts of the __________.
What is water cycle
True or False. The water cycle has no real beginning or end.
what is true
What does heat from the sun cause liquid water to do?
What is evaporation
When water droplets combine, they become this, causing it to rain.
What is too heavy.
The sun evaporates the water into water vapor.
Water soaking into the ground recharging aquifers.
What is Infiltration?
When water runs off Earth's surface, it collects in __________, __________, and ________.
lakes, rivers, and oceans.
Water that falls from clouds to Earths surface
What is precipitation
What is the change in state of matter from a liquid to a gas or vaper?
evaporating
What is needed to do work or cause change?
Energy
The energy source that drives the water cycle.
What is the Sun?
What is the term used when water vapor is released from the leaves of plants?
What is transpiration.
When water evaporates it goes through this state change.
What is a liquid to a gas?
This is how a solar still produces clean water.
These two things may occur AFTER precipitation.
What are run-off and infiltration?
These parts of the water cycle do NOT use the Sun as an energy source.
What are Precipitation, Run-off, and Infiltration.
This is how the sun provides energy for the water cycle and for the rock cycle.
The sun is the source of heat that makes water evaporate and aids in the weathering and erosion of rocks.
Frozen water changes into water vapor when heated, skipping the liquid phase.
What is sublimation?
