Question

Identify the correct order of the different processes that takes place during water cycle.

• A. Evaporation $\to$ Condensation $\to$ Precipitation
• B. Precipitation $\to$ Evaporation $\to$ Condensation
• C. Condensation $\to$ Evaporation $\to$ Precipitation
• D. Precipitation $\to$ Condensation $\to$ Evaporation

Answer 1

The correct option is A Evaporation $\to$ Condensation $\to$ Precipitation

• During water cycle, the water (liquid) from water bodies is heated up and gets converted into water vapour (gas) in the process known as evaporation.
• This vapour rise in the air and condense to form clouds in the sky, in the process known as condensation.
• Water droplets in the clouds fall onto the earth's surface in the form of rain, snow, or hailstones. This process is known as precipitation.
