Question image

Imagine a world without water! Do you think that could ever happen on Earth? Why or why not?

1

Yes, because water is a non-renewable resource and we might run out!

2

No, because water is a superstar, continuously recycled through the water cycle

3

Yes, because it might all decide to take a trip into space, evaporating away

4

No, because it's like a magic trick, constantly being created by chemical reactions

Reorder

Order the following steps

The Sun heats earth's water

Water warms and rises into the air as a gas

As it rises it cools down forming tiny water droplets

The cooled water droplets form clouds

Gravity causes heavy droplets to fall as rain, sleet, hail, snow

Question image

Students in a 5th grade science class performed the experiment below. They filled a bag partially with water and taped it to a window on a sunny day. After 2 hours the students observed that the bag above the water began to look cloudy. Why does the bag appear to look cloudy?

1

Energy from the sun causes liquid water to turn into water vapor.

2

Energy from the air in the bag heats up and begins to boil.

3

Energy from the sun heats the ice cubes in the bag and cause them to melt into liquid water.

4

Part of the water escapes the bag and condensation is happening on the outside.

Multiple Choice

Question image

The picture shows a cumulonimbus cloud forming over an ocean. Which statement best explains how the sun and the ocean interact to form a cumulonimbus cloud?

1

Heat from the sun warms the ocean causing water to evaporate. The water vapor then condenses to form a cumulonimbus cloud.

2

Heat from the sun causes clouds in the area to gather over the ocean and form on large cumulonimbus cloud.

3

Light from the sun shines on the ocean, causing water vapor to condense. The water then evaporates to form a cumulonimbus cloud.

4

Light from the sun causes ocean water to reflect water vapor in the air and gather over the ocean into a cumulonimbus cloud.

Multiple Choice

What are the roles of runoff and accumulation in the water cycle?

1

Runoff returns water to larger bodies

2

Accumulation is the collection of water

3

Both help move and store water

4

Runoff is only important for lakes
