Answer: Evaporation, condensation, precipitation and collection (runoff and groundwater).
3How does it work?
Answer: The Sun heats water, which evaporates; the vapour rises, cools and condenses into clouds; droplets join and fall as rain or snow; water flows back to the sea or soaks into the ground.
4Why is it important?
Answer: The water cycle gives us rain and fresh water; India depends on the monsoon for farming and drinking water.
5What happens if I change something? (use the sliders)
Answer: Increase the Sun's heat to see more evaporation and heavier rain.
6What should I remember for the exam?
Answer: Evaporation → condensation → precipitation → collection. Transpiration from plants also adds water vapour.
