Question

1. label the following diagram of the water cycle using the words in the boxes. include arrows to show the direction of water flow for each process.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify Precipitation Flow

Precipitation (rain) falls from clouds to Earth (land/water bodies). Draw an arrow from the cloud labeled with precipitation down to the land (trees/lake area).

Step2: Identify Condensation Flow

Condensation forms clouds from water vapor. Draw an arrow from the water body (lake) up to the cloud labeled condensation (showing evaporation first, then condensation into clouds).

Step3: Identify Transpiration Flow

Transpiration is water vapor from plants. Draw an arrow from the trees (plant) up to the cloud (to show water vapor release into the atmosphere, contributing to condensation).

Step4: Check Water Cycle Logic

Ensure arrows follow the water cycle: Evaporation (from water body) → Condensation (into clouds) → Precipitation (to Earth) → Transpiration (from plants) → Evaporation, etc. Adjust arrows to show each process direction: Precipitation (downward), Condensation (upward from water to cloud), Transpiration (upward from plants to air).

Answer:

• Precipitation arrow: From the precipitation - labeled cloud down to the land (trees/lake).
• Condensation arrow: From the water body (lake) up to the condensation - labeled cloud (after evaporation).
• Transpiration arrow: From the trees (plants) up to the atmosphere (toward clouds).
