Question

During one part of the water cycle, heat from the Sun causes liquid water to change into water vapor, which rises into the atmosphere.
Which statement best describes the reverse of this process?
As liquid water falls from the atmosphere to land, it turns into a gas
As the Sun's rays warm solid ico, it begins to melt into liquid water.
As liquid water from streams and groundwater drains into large bodies of liquid water, it turns to gas.
As water vapor meets cooler air, it changes into droplets of liquid water that return to Earth's surface,

Answer 1

A

Explanation:

Evaporation is a key step in the water cycle. Evaporation happens when a liquid turns into a gas. It can be easily visualized when rain puddles “disappear” on a hot day or when wet clothes dry in the sun. In these examples, the liquid water is not actually vanishing—it is evaporating into a gas, called water vapor
