Question

mr. powell is demonstrating the water cycle. he shapes mountains out of the glass lid. in this model, which choice correctly identifies evidence of co water droplets falling on the clay less water in the bottom of the aquarium water running from the clay into the water water forming on the lid under the container

Explanation:

The water cycle involves processes like evaporation, condensation, precipitation, etc. Condensation is the process where water vapor cools and changes back into liquid water. In the model, when water vapor (from the aquarium water) rises, cools on the glass lid (which is likely cooler), it condenses into liquid water droplets forming on the lid. Let's analyze each option:

• "water droplets falling on the clay" is precipitation (after condensation and when droplets get heavy), not condensation itself.
• "less water in the bottom of the aquarium" could be evaporation, not condensation.
• "water running from the clay into the water" is runoff, not condensation.
• "water forming on the lid under the container" is water vapor cooling and condensing into liquid on the lid, which is condensation.

Answer:

D. water forming on the lid under the container (assuming the last option is D; if the options were labeled differently, adjust the label but the text is "water forming on the lid under the container")
