Analyze the water cycle processes

The first three sentences describe the movement of water through the atmosphere.

• "Water is warmed by the sun and..." describes the phase change from liquid to gas, which is evaporates (or evaporation).
• "It is then cooled and..." describes the phase change from gas to liquid, which is condenses (or condensation).
• "Finally, it is brought back to Earth in the form of..." describes water falling back to the surface, which is precipitation (or rain).

These processes are core components of Biogeochemical Cycles, specifically the water (hydrologic) cycle.

Identify nutrient storage

The final sentence states: "Water and nutrients that are not cycled are stored in a..."

• In biogeochemical cycling, elements and compounds that are not actively moving through the cycle are held in a reservoir (or sink).
