What is the Water cycle, Evaporation Condensation, Precipitation, Watershed, Runoff and Groundwater? 

Water cycle:

All water on Earth is recycled, or reused, constant. This continuous movement of water between Earth surface and the air, changing from liquid into gas into liquid, is the water cycle.



Evaporation:

Evaporation is the changing of a liquid into a  gas.

Condensation:

Condensation is the changing of a gas into a liquid. 

The water droplets gather with dust particles and form  clouds.

Precipitation:

Precipitation is any form  of water that falls from the atmosphere and reaches the ground, such as rain, sleet, snow, or hail.

Watershed:

A watershed is an area from which water is drained. 

Runoff:

Precipitation that flows across the land's surface and is not absorbed will flow into rivers, lakes, and streams as runoff.

Most of the water will flow from rivers into the ocean. 

Groundwater:

Some of the water will settle underground and become groundwater. 

Groundwater is stored in tiny holes, or pores, in soil and rocks.

What is Intertidal zone? Define Estuary. I ntertidal zone : O ceans are divided into zones. The shallowest part of the ocean ecosystem is called the intertidal zone. The  intertidal zone  is the area where the ocean meets the land between high and low tides. Estuary : The boundary where freshwater feeds into salt water is called an estuary . An  estuary  is an area where a freshwater river or stream meets the ocean.
