Evaporation, Condensation, Precipitation, Percolation, and Runoff
What are the stages of the water cycle?
100
The river carries soil and sediments with the water's movement and erosion is the process where wind, water, ice, or gravity transports soil/sediment to another place.
What is a river's role in erosion and what is erosion?

A sewage treatment plant is a facility that cleans the waste material in water coming from sewers/drains.
What is a sewage treatment plant?
100
Placer deposits and deltas
What are results of deposition in water?
100
a body of rock or sediment that stores underground water and allow the flow of the water
What is an aquifer?
200
Rain, snow, sleet, or hail that falls from clouds onto the earth's land and oceans.
What is precipitation?
200
The main stem, tributaries (primary/secondary/etc.), watersheds and divides
What are the main parts of a river system?
200
primary treatment, and secondary treatment.
What are the two stages dirty water goes through to be cleaned?
200
The process in which material is laid down.
What is deposition?
200
The zone of aeration, the zone of saturation, and the water table
What are the three areas underground?
300
The water cycle's purpose is to keep the water moving.
What is the water cycle's purpose?
300
they use gradient, discharge, and load.
What are the three ways rivers erode?
300
To use a septic tank
What is a different way to clean waste water?
300
One is formed on dry land and the other is formed on the coast (wet land/mud)
What is the difference between deltas and alluvial fans?
300
Porosity and permeability
What affects the aquifer in storing water?
400
The water cycle is the continuous movement of water from the ocean to the atmosphere to the land and back to the ocean
What does the water cycle mean?
400
youthful rivers, mature rivers, old rivers, and rejuvenated rivers
What are the four types of rivers?

Water goes to agriculture and industry.
Where does water go?
400
an area along a river made of sediment deposited when a river overflows its banks
What is a flood plain?
400
A spring whose water flows from a crack in the cap rock over the aquifer.
What is an artesian spring?
500
Evaporation is when the water heats up and turns into vapor and condensation is when the vapor cools and changes into water droplets for precipitation.
What is the difference between evaporation and condensation?
500
A channel is a path that a stream follows.
What is a channel?
500
Raw sewage, settling tank, and sludge.
What are the parts of the primary treatment?

Flash flooding can kill people, ruin structures, and overflow crops without any attention
What are flooding dangers?
