Question

1. Name the process which takes place before rain comes to earth.
2. How much of earth’s surface is covered with water?
3. What is the loss of water from plants called?
4. Name any two ways by which we can utilise ground water.
5. Where does water falling as rain ultimately go?

Answer 1

Answer:

1)water cycle

2)71 percent

3)this uptake of water at the roots, transport of water through plant tissues, and release of vapor by leaves is known as transpiration. Water also evaporates directly into the atmosphere from soil in the vicinity of the plant.

5)Rain falls to the earth from clouds and runs downhill into rivers and lakes. Eventually the water flows into the ocean. During evaporation, the water turns from liquid into gas, and moves from oceans and lakes into the atmosphere where it forms clouds.

Answer 2

Answer:

1)water cycle , tiny fraction—just 0.001 percent—exists in the Earth's atmosphere as water vapor. When molecules of water vapor return to liquid or solid form, they create cloud droplets that can fall back to Earth as rain or snowa process called condensation.

2) 71 percent of the Earth's surface is water-covered, and the oceans hold about 96.5 percent of all Earth's water.

3) release of vapor by leaves is known as transpiration.

4) Fix the plumbing. You can begin by fixing leaks. ...

Use water wisely. Start by turning off the tap

Explanation:

5) Water eventually returns to the ocean as precipitation that falls directly into the sea and as precipitation that falls on land and flows to the ocean through rivers. Less water evaporates over the land than falls onto land as precipitation.
