Which option gives the correct order of cooling and condensation in hydrosphere formation?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Earth cooled, water vapour condensed, rain and water bodies formed

The hydrosphere includes all water on Earth, such as oceans, rivers, lakes, groundwater and water vapour. In the early history of Earth, the planet was extremely hot. As its surface and atmosphere cooled, water vapour could change into liquid water through condensation. The condensed water fell as rain, and over long periods it collected in low areas to form oceans and other water bodies. Therefore, the order must begin with cooling, followed by condensation, rainfall and collection.

Option C gives the correct sequence: Earth cooled, water vapour condensed, rain fell, and water bodies formed. Option A reverses the basic order because stable surface water could not form before the necessary cooling. Option B is incorrect because red shift is an observation related to motion and distance in astronomy, not the process that directly formed Earth’s water. Option D does not describe the accepted sequence. The answer follows a clear cause-and-effect chain.
