Question

multiple choice question 10 listen what is the role of plants in the movement of water through the water cycle? a plants absorb water and use the water for photosynthesis. b plants absorb water and release back into the atmosphere through transpiration. c plants absorb water from the soil and store it indefinitely. d plants cause water to condense into the atmosphere and form clouds.

Explanation:

• Option A: While plants use water for photosynthesis, this does not directly relate to the movement of water in the water cycle.
• Option B: Transpiration is the process by which plants absorb water from the soil and release it back into the atmosphere as water vapor, which is a key part of the water cycle.
• Option C: Plants do not store water indefinitely. Water is used for various processes or released.
• Option D: Condensation is mainly a physical process (e.g., cooling of water vapor) rather than a process caused by plants.

Answer:

B. Plants absorb water and release back into the atmosphere through transpiration.
