The correct order of processes involved in the water cycle is:
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is C 1. Evaporation, 2. Condensation, 3. Precipitation
When water bodies are heated during the daytime, a large amount of water evaporates and goes into the air. The hot air rises-up along with water vapor with it. As the vapor rises, it expands and cools. The cooling of water vapor is called the condensation. The condensation of water vapor results in the formation of liquid water droplets in the air creating clouds which finally, fall-down majorly in form of rain (precipitation).
Some water falls back to water bodies while some seep inside the ground which comes to human use through tube wells or wells. Therefore, the correct order is evaporation, condensation and precipitation.
