Open in App
Solution
The correct option is D Decomposition
A. When the water vapour in the atmosphere condenses and fall in the form of rain, hail, snow etc., it is called precipitation.B. Condensation is the conversion of a gas into liquid when the temperature is lowered down.C. Transpiration is the loss of water in vapour form from the surface of leaves through minute pores called stomata.D. Decomposition is the process of breakdown of complex organic materials into simpler ones.E. Runoff is the overflow or the flow of excess water over the earth's surface from any water source.Hence, water cycles through the biosphere in all of the given processes except decomposition.So, the correct answer is 'Decomposition'.
