Water can be seen in water cycle in its all three different states.
These are:
(i) Gaseous State It occurs in the form of water vapour. It evaporates from the surface of water bodies and mixes with air.
(ii) Liquid State Water vapour condenses high up in the atmosphere. It falls on the Earth in the form of rain.
(iii) Solid State It is formed by the freezing of liquid droplets in the upper layer of atmosphere. These droplets fall on the Earth in the form of snow, hail or sleet.
