Water Cycle
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Precipitation | Water collects in clouds to form this process (rain falls) |
| Capillarity | Some of water in soil moves up roots of plants |
| Absorption | Plants take in water from ground |
| Evaporation | Water disappears from bodies of water |
| Transpiration | The process of water evaporating through stoma, or pores, in the foliage of plants |
| Surface run-off | Water which falls to the ground to streams, ponds, oceans, etc (bodies of water) |
| Percolation | The process of water from surface run-off water soaking into the ground |
| Ground water | Water that runs back to lakes and other bodies of water |
| How does deforestation (cutting down forests) interfere with the water cycle? | There would be no transpiration process, therefore it would be difficult to recycle water |
