Question

Which sequence lists the water cycle in order? A) condensation, evaporation, runoff/storage, precipitation B) evaporation, condensation, precipitation, runoff/storage C) condensation, precipitation, evaporation, runoff/storage Eliminate D) condensation, runoff/storage, precipitation, evaporation

Answer 1

The answer is B) evaporation,condensation, precipitation, runoff/storage

Answer 2

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When state of water changes from liquid to vapor then this process is known as evaporation.

And, when vapor or gaseous state of a substance or water changes into liquid state then it is known as condensation.

During precipitation, water from the clouds reaches back to the ground generally in the form of snow, rain or sleet etc.

Runoff is a process when water is not absorbed into the soil and it makes its way into a body of water.

Therefore, we can conclude that the sequence evaporation, condensation, precipitation, runoff/storage correctly lists the water cycle in order.
