Detailed explanation-1: -The water cycle shows the continuous movement of water within the Earth and atmosphere. It is a complex system that includes many different processes. Liquid water evaporates into water vapor, condenses to form clouds, and precipitates back to earth in the form of rain and snow.

Detailed explanation-2: -The water cycle, also known as the hydrologic cycle, describes where water is stored on Earth and how it moves.

Detailed explanation-3: -The cyclic movement of water from the atmosphere to the Earth and back to the atmosphere through various processes is called as water cycle. Different steps of water cycle include evaporation, transpiration, condensation, precipitation and surface run-off.

Detailed explanation-4: -There are four main parts to the water cycle: Evaporation, Convection, Precipitation and Collection. 1) Evaporation. Evaporation is when the sun heats up water in rivers or lakes or the ocean and turns it into vapour or steam. The water vapour or steam leaves the river, lake or ocean and goes into the air.
