What is the movement of water from the earth to the air and back to the earth?
A
precipitation
B
water cycle
C
evaporation
D
condensation
Explanation: 

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. Water is stored in the atmosphere, on the land surface, and below the ground. It can be a liquid, a solid, or a gas.

Detailed explanation-3: -As is the case with evaporation and condensation, precipitation is a process. 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: -When warmed by the sun, water on the surface of oceans and freshwater bodies evaporates, forming a vapor. Water vapor rises into the atmosphere, where it condenses, forming clouds. It then falls back to the ground as precipitation. Moisture can also enter the atmosphere directly from ice or snow.

Detailed explanation-5: -The water cycle is a process, in which water evaporates from the surface into the atmosphere, cools and condenses through the rain in clouds and again falls on the surface with the process of precipitation.
