- Q1A partial concept map for the cyclingof water in the Earth system is provided. Which of the following would be a correct labeling of one of the arrows in the concept map?X - CrystallizationZ- EvaporationW-PrecipitationY - Transpiration30s
- Q2Humans affect the hyrologic cycle in many ways. Humans harm the water cycle byrecycling and reusing products so that contaminates do not enter into our rivers and streams.reducing the amount of water wasted by long showerscreating more roads and highways, affecting the amount of groundwater that collects.collecting rainfall in barrels to use to water plants and the lawn30s
- Q3When developing a model of the cycling of water between the land, ocean, and atmosphere, one must include the forces that propel the water. For the model, these forces would be which of the following?Plants, animals, and human activityRivers, streams and tributariesThe Sun's radiation and gravity30s
- Q4Students built a model of the water cycle by putting water in the bottom of a plastic bottle and then shining a lamp on it. What part of the model represents the formation of clouds?Tiny droplets forming at top of bottleLamp shining on bottlewater sitting in the bottom of bottleDrops running down side of bottle30s
- Q5Gravity plays a major role in the global movement of water in which of the following processes?Water vapor rising into the atmosphereWater flowing in rivers and streamsthe expansion of water as it turns into iceThe shifting of ocean currents as the strike land30s
- Q6How are the processes of evaporation and condensation similar? Both evaporation and condensationinvolve water's change in states of matteroccur when water is heated by energy from the Sunare observed only in areas that have high windsoccurs when water is moved between the ocean and the land30s
- Q7Which of the following processes contributes most to the movement of water from land to the atmosphere?CrystallizationCondensationTranspirationEvaporation30s
