Question 8

wat is evaporation?

Answer 8

heat from Sun cause water to change to water vapour

Question 9

wat is transpiration?

Answer 9

water vapour given out by plants thru their leaves

includes all forms of water = rain & snow & hailstorms

Answer 12

some left over water being absorbed into the ground

Question 13

water that inflitrates & contained in the soil & the underlying rocks

Question 14
