The Water Cycle

1. What is the water cycle? The water cycle is a never ending process where water is moved from Earth's surface to the atmosphere and back again.

2. Does the water cycle have a beginning or end? The water cycle never ends or begins it is continuous.

3. Starting with a puddle on a sunny day, describe how water might move through the water cycle and eventually fall back as rain. A water puddle on a sunny day will evaporate in to the atmosphere and in the atmosphere becomes cool and the water vapor condenses in a process called condensation creating a cloud and then water gets to heavy to hold and will precipitate from the atmosphere to Earth's surface as rain.
