Question

what effect does gravity have on precipitation in the water cycle? question 12 increases transpiration rates helps water to condense pulls water back to earth’s surface causes water to evaporate

Explanation:

Gravity is a force that acts downward. In the water - cycle, precipitation occurs when water falls from clouds to the Earth's surface. Gravity is the force that pulls water (in the form of rain, snow, etc.) back to Earth's surface. Transpiration is related to plants, condensation is about water vapor changing to liquid without the direct role of gravity in the sense asked here, and evaporation is caused by heat, not gravity.

Answer:

Pulls water back to Earth’s surface
