Water Cycle
The process in which condensed water falls back to Earth.
What is precipitation?
The biosphere, geosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere.
What are Earth's spheres?
A bird is apart of this sphere.
What is the biosphere?
Of all of the water on the planet, this percent of it is salt water.
What is 97?
Less than 1% of all of Earth's freshwater is made up of this
What is lakes and rivers?
The process when the liquid water on Earth turns to water vapor.
What is evaporation?
The process that water goes through. Water is always apart of this at any given time in solid, liquid, or gaseous states.
What is the water cycle?
Soil is apart of this sphere.
What is the geosphere?
Of all of Earth's freshwater, this percent of it is frozen.
This resource is a good one to use for those who live far from town and cannot access town water as easily.
What is a well?
The process that occurs when water vapor turns back into liquid water.
What is condensation?
The breaking down of rock and sediments
What is weathering?
A bird flying in the air is an interaction between these two spheres.
What is the atmosphere and biosphere?
This percent of water is how much covers Earth.
What is 71?
When oxygen is released during photosynthesis, this is an interaction between these two spheres.
What is the atmosphere and biosphere?
A source of fresh water that it is stored under the surface.
What is groundwater?
When two or more spheres work alongside one another to preform an action within Earth's systems.
What is an interaction?
A cloud condensing is an example of an interaction between these two spheres.
What is the atmosphere and hydrosphere?
30% of Earth's FRESHWATER is made up for this.
What is groundwater?
This is the biome that is home to polar bears and glaciers.
What is the Tundra biome?
Water that does not get stored underground following some form of precipitation. This water flows to a collection spot such as rivers or lakes.
What is runoff?
A source of freshwater being stored for the purpose of human consumption or activity.
What is an reservoir?
Each one of these is classified by the different ways spheres interact with one another. For example, the rainforest is full of plants and animals that benefit or can survive in more precipitation.
What is a biome?
Which is more? All of Earth's freshwater or glaciers
Freshwater.
The town that has Brewer's drinking water reservoir
What is Eddington?
