Across
  1. 3. body of water in which light filters all the way to the bottom
  2. 4. water safe to drink
  3. 6. a layer of permeable rock, sand or gravel through which water flows containing enough water to supply wells
  4. 7. water moves directly from solid state to gaseous state( snow or frost to gas)
  5. 9. runoff water that stays on the surface
  6. 11. water leaves the air in liquid form (rain) or solid form (snow, sleet, hail) when the particles are too large to stay suspended in the air
  7. 14. body of water in which light does not reach the bottom
  8. 15. water entering the atmosphere as a gas as a result of gas exchange directly from plants
Down
  1. 1. water molecules in the air in gaseous state join together to form water droplets in liquid state
  2. 2. water that sinks into the ground and occupies the spaces between the rocks
  3. 5. water in liquid state/form changing to a gaseous state into the atmosphere
  4. 8. water that has a lower level of salinity because it is an area where fresh water drains into a body of saltwater
  5. 10. area of land where all of the water that is under it or drains off of it goes into the same place
  6. 12. movement of water through the soil and its layers by gravity
  7. 13. water moves directly from gaseous state to a solid state ( water vapor to frost)
