precipitation sun heats up water in rivers and turns it into vapour
collection air near the surface is heated and rises taking heat with it

Explanation:

• Evaporation: The sun heats water (e.g., in rivers) and turns it to vapour.
• Convection: Surface - heated air rises with heat.
• Precipitation: Water condenses when air can't hold it.
• Collection: Storage of water (e.g., in lakes, oceans after precipitation).

Answer:

Evaporation - sun heats up water in rivers and turns it into vapour.
Convection - air near the surface is heated and rises taking heat with it.
Precipitation - water has condensed as the air cannot hold it anymore.
Collection - storage of water.
