Water Cycle 1
Evaporation happens the most here
What is Earth's Ocean
This covers ¾ of earth’s surface
What is water
Part of the water cycle where water comes down from the atmosphere in the form of rain, snow, sleet, or hail
This is where water flows over land into streams, lakes, rivers, and oceans.
What is run-off
Storms that strengthen over land by drawing from the evaporation of abundant soil moisture
What is Brown Ocean Effect
Contributes most to the movement of water from land to the atmosphere
Heat, Wind, Gravity
What are the three forces in the water cycle
The process in the water cycle which results in the formation of clouds
What is condensation
Evaporation of water through the leaves of plants
Transpiration
Produce the most rainfall
What is smaller tropical storms
Most of the water on Earth is
What is salt water
Similarity between evaporation and condensation
What is the different states of matter
Another name for the Water Cycle
Hydrological Cycle
Precipitation is rain, snow, sleet, or hail falling to Earth due to
What is gravity
Double Jeopardy:
Yes/No: Storm strengthen over land due to brown water effect
Yes
This is where the water cycle ends
Nowhere and anywhere
T/F amount of water on Earth is different every day
False, stays the same
What is the process in which water freezes?
What is crystallization
This is the air surrounding Earth, and it is made up of nitrogen, oxygen and other trace gases.
What is atmosphere
Condensation forming clouds; lots of precipitation, widespread flooding, and rainfall. Sunlight heats the water, causing evaporation, strengthening the storm over land.
What is the contribution of the water cycle
Precipitation falls from the clouds, water runs off into the ocean, water evaporates from Earth’s surface, water vapor condenses in the air
What is water cycle
Double Jeopardy:
Sweaty Plant
What is transpiration
Moves water across the land into oceans when it rains, makes rain to fall, makes water flow in river
What is gravity
The water cycle’s power source
What is the sun
