Explains why there is no "New" water on earth or "More" water on Earth
What is the water cycle?
200
Ground water returns to these
What are bodies of water: ocean, lakes, rivers
200
This area is warm year round because it is closer to the equator.
What are tropical zones?
200
The temperature in the mountains is cooler because of temperature decreases with this
What is elevation?
200
The cold fronts and warm fronts show this based on the way they are drawn.
What is the direction they are heading?
300
Evaporation causes this to rise in the water.

300
A puddle disappearing from the sidewalk represents this.
What is evaporation?
300
This area is found farther away from the equator.
What are the polar zones?
300
Determining the climate depends on average temperatures, elevation, and this
What is location?
300
The condition of the atmosphere at a particular place and time is called
What is weather?
400
Condensations create these in the sky when the water vapor turns to a liquid.
What are clouds?
