Water cycle quiz Grade 5 with answer key

📚 Quick Study Guide

• 💧 Evaporation: The process where liquid water changes into water vapor (gas). Think of a puddle drying up in the sun!
• ☁️ Condensation: The process where water vapor changes back into liquid water, forming clouds. This happens when the air cools down.
• 🌧️ Precipitation: Any form of water falling from the sky, such as rain, snow, sleet, or hail.
• ⛰️ Collection: The process where water gathers in rivers, lakes, oceans, and underground. This water eventually evaporates and starts the cycle again.
• ☀️ The Sun's Role: The sun provides the energy that drives the water cycle. It heats the water, causing evaporation.
• 🔄 The Water Cycle: A continuous process with no beginning or end. Water is constantly moving and changing states.
