1. Evaporation happens first... that's when the warmth from the sun causes water from oceans, lakes, etc to rise into the air turning into water vapor... then the water vapor collects together to form clouds
2. Condensation: When water vapor in clouds cool down and turn back into liquid water
3. Precipitation: When the water falls from the sky, in the form of rain, snow, hail, etc.
4. Runoff: when the water goes back onto the land and back into the ground, streams, etc.
***Transpiration is when moisture is carried through plants from the roots then changes into vapor and is released into the atmosphere (im not really sure where this goes)
Hope this helped!!!
