Explain the water cycle using the terms condensation, evaporation, and precipitation.

The water cycle is also known as the hydrological cycle. It shows how water is circulated continuously within the atmosphere of the Earth.

Evaporation is the process where water, when heated, goes from the liquid to gaseous state in the form of vapor. This is how water gets from the geosphere to the atmosphere. As the vapor rises, the air around it gets cooler, and this is where condensation occurs. Condensation is the process where vapour will turn into its liquid state. As more vapour condense they start to form clouds. When the cloud gets dense enough, the water falls back to Earth through precipitation.
