Step 1
The hydrologic cycle helps purify the atmosphere through the process of precipitation. When water evaporates from the Earth's surface, it rises into the atmosphere as water vapor. As the water vapor cools and condenses, it forms clouds. Eventually, the water Show more…

What is the best description of the hydrologic cycle ?
Adi S.
The hydrologic cycle is driven by $a$. the flow of water into the oceans via rivers. $b$. evaporation (transpiration) of water from the leaves of plants. $c$ evaporation of water from the surface of the oceans. $d$. precipitation falling on land. $e .$ the fact that more water falls on the ocean as precipitation than evaporates from its surface.
