Answer:
The correct answer would be:
- A- evaporation
- B- condensation
- C- precipitation
- D- groundwater
Water cycle starts with the evaporation of surface water of rivers, lakes, oceans et cetera. Transpiration and breathing also help in releasing water vapor into the atmosphere.
As the water vapors move up in the atmosphere, the temperature decreases due to which they begin to condense which results in the formation of clouds.
The tiny droplets of water vapors keep on merging with each other to form larger drops. Under the influence of temperature and gravity, the water precipitated in the form of rain, snow, due et cetera.
The water then run-offs the ground and percolate into the soil to form groundwater.
