Explanation:

• Precipitation: It is the process where water (in various forms like rain, snow) leaves the atmosphere and reaches the hydrosphere (Earth's water bodies). So the statement "Precipitation is when water in hydrosphere leaves the atmosphere" is correct.
• Evaporation: It is the process by which water from the hydrosphere (e.g., oceans, lakes) turns into vapor and enters the atmosphere. So "Evaporation is when water from the hydrosphere enters the atmosphere" is correct.
• Energy from the Sun: It provides the heat required for evaporation in the hydrosphere. Condensation (water vapor turning back into liquid) is not caused by direct solar energy input in the sense described in the wrong statement. The correct role of solar energy is in evaporation.

Answer:

• Precipitation is when water in hydrosphere leaves the atmosphere.
• Evaporation is when water from the hydrosphere enters the atmosphere.
• Energy from the Sun causes evaporation in the hydrosphere.
