Answer:

The water cycle is the continuous movement of water between the surface  of the Earth and the air. The water cycle involves several steps involving  evaporation, transpiration, condensation, and precipitation. It is a continuous  cycle where water evaporates into the air and becomes part of a cloud, falls  down to earth as precipitation, and then evaporates again. This repeats again  and again in a cycle that lasts forever. Evaporation is when the sun heats up the waters in oceans, lakes, and other  bodies of water. The water then changes into a gas. The water or moisture, now  a gas, then evaporates into the air. This continuously takes place all over the  world.  Transpiration is the process by which plants lose water in the form of water  vapor. Transpiration is similar to evaporation by getting the water vapor from  plants back up into the air. It is also a part of the Earth's water cycle. It takes  place continuously as plants grow using the water that passes through the roots  of the plants and is then released into the air.  Condensation occurs when the water vapor in the air becomes cold and  changes back into a liquid. During the water cycle, clouds are formed due to  condensation. It is also condensation when water droplets from the air form on  the outside of a cold drink. Condensation also occurs following a hot shower.  The water from the shower changes to a water vapor and the droplets cover the  mirror and other objects in the room.  Precipitation is rain, snow, sleet, or hail that falls to the ground.  Precipitation occurs during the water cycle when the air can no longer hold  water that had been evaporated. The clouds get heavy and the evaporated  water falls back to the earth as precipitation.  Rain forms in clouds when the clouds are large enough to have water  droplets. The water droplets collide and form raindrops. Snow is formed when  water vapor changes directly to a solid at a temperature of less than  32 °F. Sleet is basically rain drops that freeze into ice pellets before reaching  the ground. Hail is cooled water that freezes on contact with ice crystals in  clouds normally occurring in the summer months, and usually during  thunderstorms. Humidity is the amount of water vapor in the air.
