Water Cycle

3. The process when water changes into ice crystals, such as snowflakes, when it freezes.
5. The layer of gases that surrounds Earth.
7. Water that is stored underground in the spaces between rocks and soil.
10. vapor, Water in its gas form that is found in the air.
11. An underground layer of rock, sand, or gravel that stores groundwater.
14. The process of water soaking into the ground from the surface.
15. The process when a liquid changes into a solid, such as water becoming ice.
16. The process when a solid changes into a liquid, such as ice becoming water.
17. The force that causes water to fall as precipitation and helps move water downhill as runoff in the water cycle.

1. The process when water vapor cools and changes into tiny liquid water droplets, forming clouds.
2. The process by which plants release water vapor into the air through their leaves.
4. formation, The process of clouds forming when water vapor cools and condenses into tiny water droplets or ice crystals.
6. Powers the water cycle by causing water to evaporate from Earth's surface.
8. The process when liquid water is heated by the Sun and changes into water vapor.
9. Cycle, The continuous movement of water between Earth's surface and the atmosphere through evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and collection.
12. Water that flows over the land into rivers, lakes, and oceans instead of soaking into the ground.
13. Any form of water that falls from clouds to Earth, such as rain, snow, sleet, or hail.
