what is water cycle

The cyclic pattern in which water keeps moving from the ocean and the seas to the sky as water vapour, from the sky to the land as rain or snow and from the land to ocean and sea as surface water is known as water cycle.

The water cycle, also known as the hydrologic cycle or H2O cycle, describes the continuous movement of water on, above and below the surface of the earth. Water can change states among liquid,vapour, and solid at various places in the water cycle. Although the balance of water on Earth remains fairly constant over time, individual water molecules can come and go, in and out of the atmosphere..The water moves from one reservoir to another, such as from river to ocean , or from the ocean to the atmosphere, by the physical processes of evaporation, condensation, precipitation , infiltration, runoff, and subsurface flow. In so doing, the water goes through different phases: liquid, solid, and gas

THE PROCESS OF WATER BETWEEN OCEANS AND LAND IS CALLED WATER CYCLE.

The circulation of water from earth's surface to air & then back to Earth's surface is called water cycle.

Hi!

Water cycle is the movement of water from the Earth's surface and water bodies to atmosphere and back.

Cheers!

Thumbs Up Please!

water from water bodies land fields or plant goes into the air in the form  of water vapour form clouds and then comes back to the ground as rain, hailor snow is called water cycle

wayer cycle is the process of circulation between land and oceans

ocean evaporat from sun , and water goes up  and when rain comes down water goes to ocean again this is called water cycle

Water undergoes different processes in the environment and is found in different states during these processes. This cyclic process through which water circulates in the environment is called the water cycle. There are four main steps involved in water cycle:

1) Evaporation

2) Condensation

3) Precipitation

4) Run off


Evaporation is the process through which water is converted into water vapour. Heat or sunlight converts water into water vapour. Water is also emitted from the leaves of the plants through the process of transpiration.


This water vapour in the atmosphere condenses to form clouds through the process of condensation.

When enough water is condensed to form clouds, it falls down on the surface of the Earth in the form of rain, snow, hail, etc. This process is known as precipitation.


The water that falls down as precipitation runs through the rivers and seeps underground. It also flows off the surface as surface run off to join low-lying water bodies. In this manner, water is circulated in the environment.

 when the water gets evaporated by the suns heat it goes in the sky and condenses to form clouds and when these clouds become heavy the come down in the form of rain and the process continues

water cycle refers to the cycle of water from earth to the sky . the water first evaporates and then condenses in the sky forming clouds. when these clouds get heavy and come down in the form of rain this rain again goes into the sea and once again the water cycle goes on.
