Evaporation of water from water bodies, condensation of these water vapors in the form of clouds, and then returning back to earth in the form of water droplets (rain) are the basic steps of the water cycle. Within this cycle, water can be found as
● The liquid in oceans, rivers, and other water bodies.
● In form of vapors in the clouds and in the air also.
● Solid in the form of snow at high altitudes.
● Water droplets at the period of rainfall.
