Hydrologic Cycle 1 - $100

What keeps the hydrologic cycle going?

The sun

Hydrologic Cycle 1 - $200

Evaporation is when water changes from a
__________ to a __________.

Evaporation is when water changes from a liquid to a gas.

Hydrologic Cycle 1 - $300

What is the definition of runoff?

Water that moves or flows over Earth’s surface

Hydrologic Cycle 1 - $400

The picture shows which step of the hydrologic cycle?

Transpiration

Hydrologic Cycle 1 - $500

The step where water enters and filters through ground is known as __________.

Infiltration or percolation

Hydrologic Cycle 2 - $100

The hydrologic cycle begins with evaporation.
True or false?

False, there is no starting or ending point to the water cycle.

Hydrologic Cycle 2 - $200

Water in its gas state is called _________.

Water vapor

Hydrologic Cycle 2 - $300

Which state is where water turns from a gas to a liquid?

Condensation

Hydrologic Cycle 2 - $400

Deposition is water that changes from a
__________ to a __________.

Deposition is water changes from a gas (water vapor) to a solid (ice).

Hydrologic Cycle 2 - $500

Where would you find deposition taking place in the hydrologic cycle?


Cirrus clouds, which are high in the troposphere, turn from water vapor to ice crystals.
Contrails, clouds made from planes, also turn water vapor to ice crystals.

Hydrologic Cycle 3 - $100

What is groundwater?

Water stored underneath the ground

Hydrologic Cycle 3 - $200
Water that falls from the troposphere to Earth is called __________.

Precipitation

Hydrologic Cycle 3 - $300

These are all examples of which step of the hydrologic cycle?

Condensation

Hydrologic Cycle 3 - $400

Sublimation is water that changes from a
__________ to a __________.

Sublimation is water that changes from a solid
(ice) to a gas (water vapor).

Hydrologic Cycle 3 - $500

Give an example of something that undergoes sublimation.


Snow can turn directly to a vapor without melting first.
Dry ice goes from a solid carbon dioxide to its gas form.

Pollution - $100

If you contaminate water by accident it is not pollution. True or false?

False, if you contaminate water on purpose or by accident, it is still considered pollution.

Pollution - $200

What are the two types of pollution?


Point source- when pollution is put directly into a water source
Nonpoint source- when pollution is carried to a body of water by runoff, wind, or infiltration

Pollution - $300

Point source pollution or nonpoint source?

Point source because it is being dumped directly into the water

Pollution - $400

Point source pollution or nonpoint source?

Nonpoint source because it can be carried to body of water.

Pollution - $500

Which type of pollution is the bigger problem in the US- point source or nonpoint source?

Nonpoint source is a bigger problem because it is harder to monitor. Dumping pollutants into water (point source) is illegal.

Miscellaneous - $100

We will eventually run out of water. True or false?

False, the total amount of water on Earth never changes.

Miscellaneous - $200

What is water conservation, and why is it important?

Water conservation is using water responsibly. It is important because only 1% of the Earth’s water is fresh, non-frozen water. We have a limited supply of fresh water.

Miscellaneous - $300

Impermeable rock that contains a large body of groundwater is a(n) __________.

Aquifer

Miscellaneous - $400

List the steps that have an increase in thermal energy. List the steps that have a decrease in thermal energy. Choices: condensation, deposition, evaporation, sublimation, transpiration


Increase in thermal energy (gets warmer)evaporation, sublimation, and transpiration
Decrease (gets coolers- condensation and deopsition

Miscellaneous - $500

An area of land where all water drains into is a
__________.

Watershed
