Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Water eventually returns to the ocean as precipitation that falls directly into the sea and as precipitation that falls on land and flows to the ocean through rivers. Less water evaporates over the land than falls onto land as precipitation.
Detailed explanation-2: -Warmth from the sun causes water from lakes, rivers streams, ice, and soils to turn into water vapour in the air. Almost all of the precipitated water (80 percent) goes right back into the air because of evaporation. The rest runs off the land or soaks into the ground to become ground water.
Detailed explanation-3: -River is a large natural stream of flowing water. Eventually all this water from rivers and streams will run into the ocean.
