Which combined term best expresses the addition of moisture to the atmosphere by vegetation and evaporation?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Evapotranspiration

Answer: A. Evapotranspiration is the combined transfer of water from the land surface to the atmosphere through evaporation and plant transpiration. Evaporation occurs when water changes from liquid water on soil, water bodies, or wet surfaces into vapour. Transpiration is the release of water vapour from plants, mainly through tiny openings in their leaves. Combining these two related pathways gives the term evapotranspiration. A is correct because it includes both parts of the moisture transfer. B, weathering, is the breakdown of rocks and minerals at or near the surface. C, meandering, describes the bending course of a river. D, deposition, usually means material settling from a transporting medium; it is not the combined loss of water to the air. Memory cue: evaporation plus plant transpiration equals evapotranspiration.
