Solution

The correct option is D Sun
The continuous circulation of water from the land to the atmosphere and back to the land is known as water cycle.
The water cycle begins with the evaporation process. During this process, water evaporates from the water bodies, mainly by absorbing the heat from the sun.
Hence, the sun drives the water cycle primarily.
