The Water Cycle takes the water and moves it around the world . There are four stages and they are Evaporation, condensation, Precipitation and Collection.
Evaporation.
Evaporation comes when the heat from the sun warms up the groundwater and then it turns into water vapor and condensation happens.
Condensation.
Water vapor condense and turns into liquid. The matter from the gas phase into the liquid phase, and is the reverse of evaporation. Moisture, water droplets, steam "the windows were misty with condensation"
When the clouds turn grey Precipitation happens.
Precipitation.
Precipitation is the release of water from the sky it can be liquid or solid for example , rain, sleet, hail and snow. Rain begins when small droplets of water join together in clouds until they became to heavy and gravity pull them down to earth. Some parts of the world experience more rain than others.
Collection.
The water falls from the clouds as, rain, snow, hail and sleet it collects in ocean, river, lakes, streams. Most will infiltrate (soak into) the ground and will collect as underground water.
After collection the water cycle goes back to evaporation because it is a cycle and it repeats over and over.
