Solution

The correct option is B Evaporation
The process of changing of water from the liquid state to the gaseous state is called evaporation. It occurs every day in natural and man-made environments. It occurs most often around the areas which are situated near water bodies. It is the most important process in case of water cycle because the water from water bodies goes into atmosphere through the process of evaporation. The rate of evaporation increases with the increase in the temperature.
