2. 3.2 INFORMATION

4. A. WATER CYCLE
The continuous movement of water on, above, and below Earth’s surface.

5. A. WATER CYCLE
The energy to move water and allow it to change state …

6. A. WATER CYCLE
… from a liquid to a gas or a solid ultimately comes from the Sun.

8. EVAPORATION
The process by which a liquid, such as water, changes into a gas.

9. EVAPORATION
About 90% of the water vapor in Earth’s atmosphere enters through evaporation from the oceans and other bodies of water.

11. TRANSPIRATION
About 10% of the water enters the atmosphere through transpiration.

12. TRANSPIRATION
Plants release water vapor through leaves

14. CELLULAR RESPIRATION
Water vapor also enters the atmosphere through cellular respiration

15. CELLULAR RESPIRATION
takes place in many cells and produces water and carbon dioxide.

16. CONDENSATION
As water rises through the troposphere and cools, through the process of condensation

17. CONDENSATION
it changes from a gas to a liquid.

18. CONDENSATION
when the tiny drops of water come together, they form clouds.

20. PRECIPITATION
moisture that falls to Earth’s surface.

21. SURFACE RUNOFF
When water flows off of the land and into bodies of water.
