How does the sun activate the water
cycle?
Evaporation, the changing of water from a liquid to a gas
Condensation, the changing of water from a gas to a liquid
Sublimation, the changing of water from a solid to a gas
Precipitation, the process by which water molecules condense to form drops heavy
enough to fall to the earth's surface
Transpiration, the process by which moisture is carried through plants from roots to
leaves, where it changes to vapor and is released to the atmosphere
Surface runoff, the flowing of water over the land from higher to lower ground

features are created by what
• Plate Tectonics
Why are average temperatures cooler
