Water Cycle 2

Draw a labelled diagram of the Water Cycle

Water cycle words:
  1. Precipitation
  2. Hurricanes
  3. Storms
  4. Evaporation
  5. Carbon Dioxide
  6. Water
  7. Oceans
  8. Water vapour
  9. Freshwater
  10. Flooding


Water cycle words: Definition

  1. Precipitation :When clouds get heavy the water falls as rain, sleet, hail, or snow.
  2. Hurricanes : a storm with a violent wind, in particular a tropical cyclone in the Caribbean.
  3. Storms : a violent disturbance of the atmosphere with strong winds and usually rain, thunder, lightning, or snow.
  4. Evaporation : the process of turning from liquid into vapour.
  5. Carbon Dioxide : a colourless, odourless gas produced by burning carbon and organic compounds and by respiration. It is naturally present in air (about 0.03 per cent) and is absorbed by plants in photosynthesis.
  6. Water : a colourless, transparent, odourless liquid that forms the seas, lakes, rivers, and rain and is the basis of the fluids of living organisms.
  7. Oceans : a very large expanse of sea, in particular each of the main areas into which the sea is divided geographically.
  8. Water vapour : Water vapor is water in its gaseous state-instead of liquid or solid (ice). Water vapor is totally invisible.
  9. Freshwater :of or found in freshwater; not of the sea.
  10. Flooding : the covering or submerging of normally dry land with a large amount of water.

It starts with Oceans and Freshwater. Then on the right there is Evaporation which is connected to the ocean and freshwater because the water evaporates. Then connected to evaporation is water vapour and condensation. They are connected because evaporation cause condensation and water vapour. Then Precipitation is connected to condensation. 
On the other side of ocean and freshwater is flooding caused by oceans and freshwater. Floods then make storms and Hurricanes because of the water levels. Which are all caused by carbon dioxide.

To support my learning I ask you to comment as follows:
1. Something positive - something you like about what I have shared.
2. Thoughtful - A sentence to let us know you actually read/watched or listened to what I had to say
