The major source of energy and the driving energy source of the water cycle ____
A
moon
B
ocaen
C
Sun
D
atmosphere
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The heat from sun makes the water from earth’s surface to evaporate. Water vapour formed as a result travels upward and then condense to form water droplets.

Detailed explanation-2: -The sun is what makes the water cycle work. The sun provides what almost everything on Earth needs to go-energy, or heat.

Detailed explanation-3: -When energy from the Sun reaches the Earth, it warms the atmosphere, land, and ocean and evaporates water. The movement of water from the ocean to the atmosphere to the land and back to the ocean-the water cycle-is fueled by energy from the Sun.

Detailed explanation-4: -Solar energy is created by nuclear fusion that takes place in the sun. Fusion occurs when protons of hydrogen atoms violently collide in the sun’s core and fuse to create a helium atom. This process, known as a PP (proton-proton) chain reaction, emits an enormous amount of energy.
