2
Why could Earth be called the water planet?
3
Because more of the surface is covered with water
than land.
4
Why is less than 1 of the Earths water
available for humans and animals to drink.

Most of the Earths water is saltwater.
6
Most of the Earths Fresh Water is ________.
7
Ice

Name three kinds of places where Earths
Freshwater is found
9
Lakes, Rivers, Underground, In the Atmosphere

Question 10
22
Can you see water vapor in the atmosphere.
23
No you cannot see water vapor.
24
Explain the Role of the Sun in the Water Cycle
25
The sun heats liquid water adding energy and
causing it to change to water vapor.
26
Explain how clouds are formed.
27
Water vapor in the atmosphere cools down and
changes to tiny droplets of liquid water.
28
Explain why you are able to see clouds
29
Clouds are made of tiny droplets of liquid water
which are visible.
30
Explain how weathering/erosion and the water
cycle made the oceans salty.
31
Runoff picks up salts and minerals and carries
them to the ocean.Evaporation removes water but
leaves the salt behind.
32
Explain the force that causes water to return to
the oceans.
33
Gravity pulls water to the lowest point. Rivers
run down hill to the ocean.
34
The above diagram shows rain and snow
precipitating from clouds. Explain what causes
water to fall as precipitation.
35
As more water condenses droplets get bigger and
when they are too heavy they fall to earth
because of gravity.
36
Give an example of a pathway through the water
cycle that starts and ends at the same place and
includes runoff.
37
ExampleWater Evaporates from the ocean,
condenses in the atmosphere is blown over land,
then precipitates onto a hillside where it runs
off into a river which runs into the ocean.
38
Give an example of a pathway through the water
cycle that starts and ends at the same place and
includes groundwater.
39
ExampleWater evaporates from the ocean,
condenses into a cloud, blows over land,
precipitates onto soil where it infiltrates the
ground and becomes groundwater, the groundwater
runs into the ocean.
40
The diagram above shows transpiration. Explain
this process.
41
Water evaporates form plants leaves.
42
Could you and a dinosaur have drunk the same
water droplet? Explain why.
43
Yes. The same water is continually recycled on
Earth.
