    Convection Currents in the Earth's Mantle

    • The primary driving force behind convection currents in the Earth's mantle is heat from the Earth's core.

    The Water Cycle

    • Condensation is the process that involves the conversion of water vapor into liquid water.
    • Transpiration, the process by which plants release water vapor into the air, contributes to the water cycle by adding water vapor to the atmosphere.
