19. Atmospheric H 2 O Heat released from condensation drives storms

20. Question 9 9a. When water vapor condenses into liquid droplets in rising warm air heat is: released increasing air flow, heat is absorbed decreasing air flow 9b. Clouds form when water vapor condenses in: rising air, falling air

21. The H 2 O Cycle: H 2 O is recycled t ranspiration: plants losing water to air precipitation: water falling out of sky
