Question

1; sublimation or evaporation
1 and 2; evaporation only
3; precipitation or transpiration
3 and 4; transpiration only

Explanation:

1. Identify process at 1: The label 1 shows water rising from the ocean (liquid water to water vapor), which is evaporation. It can also represent sublimation if snow/ice directly turns to vapor, which fits the mountain context.
2. Eliminate incorrect options:

• Option 2 is wrong: 2 is condensation (cloud formation), not evaporation.
• Option 3 is wrong: 3 is precipitation (snow/rain), not transpiration (water from plants).
• Option 4 is wrong: 4 is runoff/infiltration, not transpiration.

1. Confirm Option 1 matches: 1 correctly describes evaporation (or sublimation from frozen mountain water) turning water into vapor.

Answer:

1; sublimation or evaporation
