Water changes forms through temperature change as it goes through the water cycle. It evaporates by being heated by the sun, it condenses by cooling as it reaches higher altitude. It precipitates when the cooled water becomes heavy, and the cycle starts all over again.
The answer is; Atmospheric circulation patterns keep the temperature of an area constant.
The atmospheric circulation does not keep the temperatures in an area constant, however, they regulate temperatures through convection currents. Hot air rises as cold air mass sinks to replace the rising hot less dense air. These currents transfer energy around the globe and prevent one area from overheating.
This is false, as the equator does not run north-south. The equators is the line that goes all around the planet in equal distance from the two poles: so it runs west-east.
It is true however that it runs roughly through the middle of the continent of Africa, but rather on the west-east axis.
