Detailed explanation-1: -What are the major 4 steps in the water cycle? The major 4 steps are evaporation of water, then condensation, precipitation and collection. The sun evaporates water sources and contributes to the formation of water vapor. These water vapour accumulate in the atmosphere as clouds.

Detailed explanation-2: -– Condensation is the process of water vapour turning into liquid water, while precipitation is the process of that liquid water falling from the atmosphere to the ground. – Condensation happens when the air is cooled to its dew point, while precipitation can happen even when the air is not at its dew point.

Detailed explanation-3: -Precipitation describes any liquid or solid water that falls to Earth as a result of condensation in the atmosphere. Precipitation includes rain, snow, and hail.

Detailed explanation-4: -The water cycle on Earth 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. Water in different phases moves through the atmosphere (transportation).

Detailed explanation-5: -Evaporation is the process that changes liquid water to gaseous water (water vapor). Water moves from the Earth’s surface to the atmosphere via evaporation.
