The water cycle

The water cycle is the constant circulation of

water between the sea, the atmosphere and land.

1.- Liquid water in the sea, rivers and lakes

evaporates because of heat from the Sun.

2.- Water vapour rises and condenses into drops of

water. The water drops form clouds.

3.- Water falls from clouds as rain, precipitation. If

it’s very cold, water solidifies and falls as snow.

4.- Water flows over the land and filters into it. It

forms rivers and lakes. It’s the collection .Some

water returns to the sea or evaporates.

The water cycle starts again.
