Question

during the water cycle, what process changes water vapor back into liquid water? (1 point) evaporation transpiration condensation precipitation which process creates new oceanic crust? (1 point) subduction sea - floor spreading mountain building weathering

Explanation:

Evaporation turns liquid water into water - vapor. Transpiration is water loss from plants. Condensation is the process by which water - vapor changes back into liquid water. Precipitation is water falling from the atmosphere. For the second question, subduction is the process of one tectonic plate moving under another. Sea - floor spreading creates new oceanic crust as magma rises and solidifies at mid - ocean ridges. Mountain building is related to tectonic plate collisions. Weathering is the breaking down of rocks.

Answer:

1. C. Condensation
2. B. Sea - floor spreading
