Animals contribute to the water
cycle through respiration,
perspiration and urination.
3. Condensation - is the process of
changing water vapor (gas)
into tiny droplets of liquid water in
the form of clouds in the
atmosphere. Condensation can be
high in the atmosphere
or at ground level. Water vapor
condenses around tiny particles
called cloud condensation nuclei
(CCN). The cloud condensation
nuclei can sometimes be specks of
dust, salt, or pollutants. As tiny
water droplets combine with each
other, clouds develop, and
precipitation may occur.
4. Precipitation - is the process by
which the tiny condensed
water droplets fall back into the
Earth’s surface in the form
of rain, hail, snow, and sleet.
