Solution

The correct option is A condensation
The hydrological cycle consists of the process of evaporation, condensation, and precipitation. Evaporation occurs when water molecules absorb heat and move into the atmosphere as water vapour. Condensation occurs when water vapour cools down into droplets and forms clouds. And precipitation occurs when heavy water droplets fall into the Earth.
