  1. yeah its part of the water cycle

    sea evaporates to make clouds,

    clouds turn to rain,

    rain falls back into the sea or land and the cycle starts again.


  2. deep below ground, there is something called the "water table".  When it rains, the water "perculates" down thru the ground, much like what happens when you brew coffee in a coffee maker.  For more info, check this out...

  3. All rains fell wherever, it finally goes to SEA.

  4. to the sea?

  5. It goes back into the ground and finally into oceans. Then the rain cycle continues.

  6. The Water Cycle of course, is the best way to explain this. Let's start from the beginning. You have evaporation of water, which becomes water vapor. This water vapor condenses into clouds. When the clouds can no longer hold the condensed water, it falls to the ground as rain. This rain water either seeps through the ground into ground water, becomes absorbed by vegetation, or runs off into a nearby ocean, river, lake, pond, creek etc. The whole process begins again.

  7. The earth has a limited amount of water.  That water keeps going around and around and around and around and (well, you get the idea) in what we call the "Water Cycle".

    This cycle is made up of a few main parts:

    evaporation (and transpiration)

    condensation

    precipitation

    collection

    Evaporation:  

    Evaporation is when the sun heats up water in rivers or lakes or the ocean and turns it into vapor or steam. The water vapor or steam leaves the river, lake or ocean and goes into the air.

    Condensation:    

    Water vapor in the air gets cold and changes back into liquid, forming clouds. This is called condensation.

    You can see the same sort of thing at home... pour a glass of cold water on a hot day and watch what happens.  Water forms on the outside of the glass.  That water didn't somehow leak through the glass!  It actually came from the air.  Water vapor in the warm air, turns back into liquid when it touches the cold glass.

    Precipitation:  

    Precipitation occurs when so much water has condensed that the air cannot hold it anymore.  The clouds get heavy and water falls back to the earth in the form of rain, hail, sleet or snow.

    Collection:  

    When water falls back to earth as precipitation, it may fall back in the oceans, lakes or rivers or it may end up on land.  When it ends up on land, it will either soak into the earth and become part of the “ground water” that plants and animals use to drink or it may run over the soil and collect in the oceans, lakes or rivers where the cycle starts all over again..
