Answer 1

Answer: The fluxes in hydrologic cycle does not include Fixation

Explanation: Hydrologic cycle is also known as the water cycle. It is the continuous movement of water on, below and above the earth's surface.

Fluxes in the hydrologic cycle simply mean how water moves in and out of the earth's surface.

The fluxes include;

- Infiltration: movement of water into the ground from the surface.

- Evaporation: This is the change of water from a liquid to a gas.

- Transpiration: This is the evaporation of liquid water from plants and trees into the Earth’s atmosphere.

- Uptake: This is the water taken from the groundwater flow and soil moisture.
