Question

note - taking: turn these sentences into notes using symbols, abbreviations and key words. symbols: = means that, equal, same as; + & and; → leads to, results in cause - effect; ↑ increase, growth, rise; ↓ decrease, decline; / new idea. the water cycle is a continuous process that describes the movement of water on earth. it starts with evaporation, where heat from the sun turns water into vapor. this vapor rises into the atmosphere and cools down forming clouds through condensation. when these clouds become heavy, they release water back to earth as precipitation.

Explanation:

The task is to convert text about the water - cycle into notes using symbols, abbreviations and keywords. For example, "The water cycle is a continuous process that describes the movement of water on Earth" could be noted as "Water cycle = cont. proc., move. of H₂O on Earth". Evaporation can be noted as "Evap: Sun heat → H₂O → vapor", condensation as "Cond: vapor → atmosphere + cool → clouds", and precipitation as "Precip: heavy clouds → H₂O back to Earth".

Answer:

Water cycle = cont. proc., move. of H₂O on Earth
Evap: Sun heat → H₂O → vapor
Vapor → atmosphere + cool → clouds (Cond)
Heavy clouds → H₂O back to Earth (Precip)
