Water Cycle
What step in the water cycle is it when water is turned from liquid state to a gaseous state?
Evaporation
Also could be transpiration
What does PH stand for?
Power or Potential of Hydrogen
5g salt 40 g water

low, sandy island that lies parallel to the shoreline
Barrier Island
a state of physical balance.
equilibrium
Why is the name Riptides or Undertows misleading?
They are actually Surface based and no not pull you under, they pull you away from the shore, further out to sea. You can escape by swimming parallel to shore.
Name the four types of precipitation
