1. Evaporation is the escape of water molecules from their liquid phase to gas phase that go up into the atmosphere. Evaporation can occur anywhere where open liquid water is exposed to sunlight or any other source of energy. Transpiration, on the other hand, is the loss of water (by evaporation) from plants through the stomata. Evaporation and transpiration move water from the biosphere to the atmosphere.

2. Condensation is the return of water molecules from gaseous phase (vapor) back to liquid form. Precipitation, on the other hand, is the coming down of condensed water from the atmosphere to the earth (biosphere), which is a significant part of the water cycle.

3. Exchange pool is the pool from (or approximate amount) which water or other elements are shared (back and forth) between different spheres (such as biosphere, atmosphere, and hydrosphere) in a cycle. A reservoir on the other hand is analogous to a ‘container’ that holds large masses of water or other elements such as a lake and the atmosphere.

4. The answer is No. because, today’s waters, due to increased pollution from industrialization that spews a lot of pullutans into the atmphere, ae contamiated. The water that precipitates is tainted by gases such as sulphuric dioxide tha makes it acidic. The water also gets polluted by other pollutants in the atmpshre and biosphere and hence become a health risk to animals and humans that drink it.

"the somatic and autonomic nervous systems are the two major divisions of the _____ nervous system."
Yuri [45]

Answer;

-Peripheral nervous system

-The somatic and autonomic nervous systems are the two major divisions of the peripheral nervous system.

Explanation;

-The nervous system can be divided into two major subdivisions: the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The peripheral nervous system is comprised of the somatic and autonomic nervous systems. The somatic nervous system transmits sensory and motor signals to and from the central nervous system.

-The somatic nervous system is involved in the relay of sensory and motor information to and from the CNS; therefore, it consists of motor neurons and sensory neurons. Motor neurons, carrying instructions from the CNS to the muscles, are efferent fibers.

-The autonomic nervous system controls our internal organs and glands and is generally considered to be outside the realm of voluntary control. It can be further subdivided into the sympathetic and parasympathetic division.
