Use complete sentences The water cycle involves the continuous circulation of water on earth and the atmosphere. Of the many processes involved in the water cycle, the most important are evaporation, transpiration, condensation and precipitation. Evaporation is the transfer of water from the surface of the Earth to the atmosphere. By evaporation, water in the liquid state is transicrred to the gaseous, or vapour, state. The main factors affecting evaporation are temperature, humidity, wind speed, and solar radiation. The principal source of water vapour is the oceans, but evaporation also occurs in soils, snow, and ice. Evaporation from snow and ice, the direct conversion from from solid to vapour, is known as sublimation. Transpiration is the evaporation of water through minute pores, or stomata, in the leaves of plants. For practical purposes, transpiration and the evaporation from all water, soils, snow, ice, vegetation, and other surfaces are lumped together and called evapotranspiration, or total evaporation. The transition process from the vapour state to the liquid state is called condensation. Condensation may take place as soon as the air contains more water vapour than it can receive from a free water surface through evaporation. This condition occurs as the consequence of either cooling or the mixing of air masses of different temperatures. By condensation, water vapour in the atmosphere is released to form precipitation. Precipitation is any liquid or frozen water that forms in the atmosphere and falls back to the Earth. It comes in many forms, like rain, sleet, and snow. Precipitation forms in the clouds when water vapor condenses into bigger and bigger droplets of water. When the drops are heavy enough, they fall to the Earth, If a cloud is colder, like it would be at higher altitudes, the water droplets may freeze to form ice. These ice crystals then fall to the Earth as snow, hail, or rain, depending on the temperature within the cloud and at the Earth's surface. Most rain actually begins as snow high in the clouds. As the snowflakes fall through warmer air, they become raindrops 5 JUST RIGHT! ~ 1 CAN DO IT. 19.[dentify two processes that involve the transfer of wat i jer from th the Earth to the atmosphere.
