1. How do you think thermal energy drives the water cycle?Waves roll on the ocean under a cloudy sky. The sun is visible behind
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

The sun is what makes the water cycle work. ... Heat causes liquid and frozen water to evaporate into water vapor gas, which rises high in the sky to form clouds... clouds that move over the globe and drop rain and snow. This process is a large part of the water cycle.

Explanation:

The primary source of energy for volcanism is radioactive decay in the Earth's interior, which provides heat that becomes locally concentrated enough to produce partial melting of Earth's rock.Volcanoes on Earth form from rising magma. Magma rises in three different ways. Magma can rise when pieces of Earth's crust called tectonic plates slowly move away from each other. The magma rises up to fill in the space.They helped cool off the earth removing heat from its interior. Volcanic emissions have produced the atmosphere and the water of the oceans. Volcanoes make islands and add to the continents. Volcanic deposits are also used as building materials.
