Why can water vapour be called an active part of the energy cycle among atmospheric elements?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: It exchanges latent heat during evaporation and condensation
The governing concept is latent heat transfer during changes of state. When liquid water evaporates, it absorbs energy from the surroundings and stores it as latent heat in water vapour. When vapour condenses into liquid droplets, that energy is released to the atmosphere, helping power convection and weather systems. Option C is correct; colour change, stopping gravity, and solidifying all gases are unrelated claims.
