Question

Identify the processes that could be A, B and C with respect to the following figure:

• A. A –Precipitation, B – Condensation, C – Evaporation
• B. A –Condensation, B – Evaporation, C – Precipitation
• C. A – Evaporation, B – Condensation, C – Precipitation
• D. A –Precipitation, B – Evaporation, C – Condensation

Answer 1

The correct option is C

A – Evaporation, B – Condensation, C – Precipitation

Given picture represents the water cycle in the environment. In this cycle, water in oceans evaporates (labelled as 'A' in the figure), forms clouds by condensation (labelled as 'B') which are blown by air over lands where it condenses and rains due to precipitation (labelled as 'C').
