Water Cycle Order

The correct order of the water cycle is:

  1. Evaporation: Sun heats water, turning it into vapor.
  2. Warm Air: Vapor rises with warm air.
  3. Condensation: Vapor cools, forms droplets in clouds.
  4. Clouds: Droplets grow, forming clouds.
  5. Precipitation: Droplets fall back as rain, snow, etc.
