By what other name is the water cycle also known?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Hydrological cycle

Direct answer: B, hydrological cycle. The water cycle is the continuous movement of water among the atmosphere, land and water bodies. Solar heating causes evaporation from oceans, lakes, rivers and moist surfaces; plants also add water vapour through transpiration. The vapour may cool and condense into clouds, and water returns to Earth as precipitation. It can then flow as runoff, enter the soil, become groundwater, or be used by organisms before returning to the atmosphere or water bodies. This complete circulation is called the hydrological cycle. A geomorphic cycle concerns landform development. A geochemical cycle concerns the movement of chemical elements. D is too general and is not the accepted name for water circulation. Memory cue: hydro means water, so hydrological cycle means water cycle.
