Running Water Crossword Puzzle

QUESTIONS LIST:

• ice : water in its solid form
• precipitation : condensed water vapor that falls to the earth’s surface. most precipitation occurs as rain, but also includes snow, hail, fog drip, graupel (snow crystals), and sleet.
• sublimation : the physical state change directly from solid water (snow or ice) to water vapor.
• infiltration : the process where water on the earth's surface enters and moves through the soil, becoming groundwater.
• hydrologic cycle : describes the continuous movement of water on, above, and below earth's surface, involving processes like evaporation, condensation, and precipitation
• melting point : adding energy to a solid, increasing the temperature until particles move freely and become liquid
• vapor : water in it gaseous form
• transpiration : the release of water vapor from plants and soil into the air. water vapor is a gas that cannot be seen.
• percolation : water flows horizontally through the soil and rocks under the influence of gravity.
• boiling point : the vapor pressure of the substance reaches the atmospheric, changing liquid to gas.
• condensation : the transformation of water vapor to liquid water droplets in the air, creating clouds and fog.
• evaporation : the transformation of water from liquid to gas phases as it moves from the ground or bodies of water into the overlying atmosphere.
• water : water in its liquid form
• deposition : is a thermodynamic process (which means it involves heat/ or energy), a phase transition in which gas vapor transforms into solid ice.
• runoff : precipitation that does not soak into the soil but instead moves on the earth's surface toward streams and lakes
