Interactive water cycle diagram for learning, highlighting key stages and processes in the hydrological cycle.

The image is a worksheet about the Water Cycle. Below, I will fill in the blanks and explain each term related to the water cycle.

---

1. PRECIPITATION

- Definition: Condensed water vapor that falls back to Earth.
- Examples: Rain, snow, sleet, hail.

---

2. CONDENSATION

- Definition: The process of a gas changing into a liquid due to a decrease in temperature or pressure.
- Explanation: Water vapor in the air cools down and changes into liquid droplets, forming clouds, fog, or dew.

---

3. SUBSURFACE RUN-OFF

- Definition: Water that reaches Earth's surface, flows over land, and reaches lakes, rivers, and oceans.
- Explanation: When rainwater or melted snow flows across the ground instead of being absorbed by the soil, it contributes to runoff.

---

4. INFILTRATION

- Definition: Water soaks into the ground from the ground level and moves into soil through roots and pores.
- Explanation: Infiltration is the process where water seeps into the ground, replenishing groundwater supplies.

---

5. ACCUMULATION

- Definition: Water collects in rivers, lakes, oceans, and other bodies of water as ice caps and glaciers.
- Explanation: Accumulation refers to the storage of water in various forms, such as ice in polar regions or glaciers.

---

6. EVAPORATION

- Definition: The process of a liquid changing into a gas due to an increase in temperature or pressure.
- Explanation: Water on the surface (e.g., oceans, lakes, rivers) absorbs heat from the sun and turns into water vapor, rising into the atmosphere.

---

7. TRANSPIRATION

- Definition: Plants absorb water through their roots and then give off water vapor through their leaves.
- Explanation: Transpiration is similar to evaporation but specifically refers to the release of water vapor from plants into the atmosphere.

---

8. SUBLIMATION

- Definition: The process of solid and ice changing into vapor without first melting into liquid.
- Explanation: Sublimation occurs when ice directly turns into water vapor, often seen in cold climates where snow or ice evaporates without melting.
