Evaporation
occurs when the sun shines on water and heats it, turning it into a gas called
water vapour
, which rises into the air.
Transpiration
occurs when the sun warms people, plants, and animals, which then releases
water vapour
into the air.
condensation
occurs when the
water vapour
in the air cools and turns back into a liquid, forming tiny water droplets in the sky.
Precipitation
is when water flows over the ground and into
creeks
, rivers, and oceans.
infiltration
is when water falls on the ground and soaks into the soil
percolation
is when water seeps deeper into tiny spaces in the soil and rock.
