What does precipitation mean?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Falling of water from the atmosphere to the ground

Correct answer: A, water falling from the atmosphere to the ground. In the water cycle, water may be present in the air as vapour, droplets, or ice particles. When these water particles become large or heavy enough, they fall to Earth as precipitation. It can include rain, drizzle, snow, sleet, or hail, depending on the form and temperature. A is correct because it gives the basic definition. B is wrong because soil carried by wind is dust movement or wind erosion, not precipitation. C is wrong because melting rock is related to heat and geology, not atmospheric water. D is wrong because sunrise is an astronomical event. Memory cue: precipitation means water coming down from the sky; evaporation sends water up.
