Solution

The correct options are
A Evaporation is a part of water cycle
C Evaporation happens faster on a sunnyday rather than a rainy day
The conversion of water from oceans, seas and lakes to water vapour is due to evaporation and hence is a part of water cycle.
Evaporation happens faster on a sunny day as the temperature during a sunny day will be much higher than that of rainy day, thereby causing evaporation to happen faster.
