The Water Cycle
Let’s discuss the vocabulary Condensation – when warm air collides with cold air and droplets form. Precipitation – droplets that after being condensed begin to fall to the earth in the form of rain, sleet, hail, glaze, or snow. Erosion – the movement of soil by wind or water. Melting – when a solid changes into a liquid. Transpiration – the movement of water directly from a tree or plant into the air as vapor. Evaporation – The process of liquid water becoming vapor.
