Question

question 27 (2 points)
which stage of the water cycle is the number 2 displaying on the image below?

a precipitation
b condensation
c evaporation
d run off

Explanation:

To determine the water cycle stage for number 2, we analyze the image:

• Precipitation (a) is falling water (like rain, labeled 4 here).
• Condensation (b) is water vapor cooling into clouds (the clouds labeled 2 show this process).
• Evaporation (c) is water turning to vapor (labeled 3, from the ocean).
• Runoff (d) is water flowing over land (not 2).

So number 2 represents condensation.

Answer:

b. Condensation
