Answer: B. participate in the hydrologic cycle

Explanation: Residence time of water is the rate of water in a water reservoir such as the ocean or the atmosphere divided by how fast more water is added to it or lost from it.

While residence time is thousands of years in oceans, water in the atmosphere has a short residence time of abut 10 – 11 days. This allows it to participate in the hydrologic cycle which includes evaporation and precipitation. Water in the atmosphere precipitates as snow or rain, returning to other water reservoirs.
