Precipitation
: the clouds become
heavy and it rains, or snows.
The water cycle has four main stages. Look at the picture.
The water
evaporates
– it rises into the atmosphere.
Vapour collects in clouds.
It becomes water drops.
This is called
condensation
.
Collection
: water runs off high land
and into rivers. These empty into
the sea and the cycle starts again.
Water heats up and becomes water
vapour
Even if we don’t
see it water is in
the air around us.
