Why east Ferris is running out of water ?

East Ferris is running out of water because they are using more water than is going into the groundwater reservoir. East Ferris does not receive much rain and therefore has to rely on the water in the groundwater reservoir.

But west Ferris does not have a water running out?

West Ferris receives much more rain than east Ferris, The people of west Ferris do not have to use water just falls the groundwater reservoir, they can use water from the rain that falls there.

List tree things that can cause water shortages.

Droughts, overuse and pollution.

What are three parts of earth system that we have discussed in this unit?

Biosphere, hydrosphere, atmosphere.

How do drops of water form?

When enough water vapor gets cold and condenses into liquid water.

How are water molecules in the states of matter spaced?

Gas molecules are very spread out and move fast liquid molecules are little spaced out move slow solid molecules are very tightly packed and don't move.

Give an example of the hydrosphere interacting...

Liquid water evaporates to from water vapor in the atmosphere.

To put together multiple pieces of information in order to understand something.

A supply of something that is useful.

A description of how something works or why something happens.

Water in the form of invisible gas.

When a gas turns into a liquid.
