The Water Cycle

1. What is the water cycle?

The water cycle is a continuous process in which water moves through the environment.

2. Does the water cycle have a beginning or end?

The water cycle doesn't have a beginning or end because it is a continuous cycle.

3. Starting with a puddle on a sunny day, describe how water might move through the water cycle and eventually fall back as rain.
If there is a puddle laying on the ground and a hot, summer, sunny day there are a few steps that it must go through before it reaches Earth again. The water will first evaporate. After the water evaporates it goes through a condensation stage. After condensation comes precipitation. This is where the water will fall back to Earth.
