Solution

Evaporation: Evaporation can generally be defined as a process by which a liquid or solid is transformed into vapour. For example, wet clothes drying in the Sun.

Condensation: Condensation is the process by which water vapour in the air is changed into liquid water. For example, condensation occurs when water vapour in the air changes into liquid water when it comes in contact with a cooler surface.

The water cycle is the continuous movement of the water all around the Earth by the process of evaporation and condensation.

When the sun shines, the water from the ocean or lake evaporates due to heat from the sun. When it evaporates, it turns into water vapour and goes up into the atmosphere. Due to condensation, water vapour changes to a liquid and falls back down to the Earth.
