  1. 6. The passage of watery vapour from a plant through its pores to the atmosphere
  2. 8. A measure of the cloudiness or haziness of water (or other fluid) caused by individual particles (suspended solids) that are generally invisible to the naked eye. Measurements of turbidity are used to indicate water quality and filtration effectiveness
  3. 10. the liquid water component of Earth, covering 70% of the surface of the earth
  4. 13. The water under the Earth's surface, consisting largely of surface water that has seeped down and is stored within saturated soil and rock. (In this usage, saturated means full of water.) The source of water in springs and wells
  5. 16. Too much water at in a given place at a given time. Types: river flood, coastal flood and flash flood
  6. 17. Fit or suitable for drinking. Potable water is safe to drink
  7. 19. The 'solid' part of the Earth (crust, mantle and core); Solid here means 'not liquid'.
  8. 20. Water (fluid) coming out of a system after being treated.​​​​​

  1. 1. The process whereby liquid water is converted to water vapour
  2. 2. The layer of gases surrounding the planet
  3. 3. An underground bed or layer of permeable rock, sediment or soil that contains or conducts groundwater. Source of water for springs and wells.​​​​​
  4. 4. Any process that removes salt from water. The term is usually applied to processes that remove salt from seawater to make it available for human consumption and agriculture
  5. 5. rain: Rain that is more acidic than normal due to dissolved polluting gases such as oxides of carbon, nitrogen and sulfur
  6. 7. Any product of the condensation of water vapour that is deposited on the Earth's surface. Occurs in different forms: rain, sleet, snow, hail, etc.​​​​​​
  7. 9. The process of removing both particles and germs from a substance that is usually water; To make something pure or to cleanse.
  8. 11. cycle: The Earth's planetary cycle of fresh water evaporating from bodies of water, falling as precipitation, being absorbed into ground or flowing down into streams, rivers, etc., back into large bodies of water. Also called the water cycle
  9. 12. Water vapour turning into the liquid form, water
  10. 14. cycle: The Earth's planetary cycle of fresh water evaporating from bodies of water, falling as precipitation, being absorbed into ground or flowing down into streams, rivers, etc., back into large bodies of water. Also called the hydrological cycle
  11. 15. vapour: The state of water (H2O) as a gas
