How does precipitation contribute to the hydrologic cycle?
Instructor solution
Precipitation is a crucial part of the hydrologic cycle. It is the process by which water vapor in the atmosphere condenses into droplets and falls to the Earth's surface as rain, snow, sleet, or hail. This water can then be taken up by plants, evaporate back into the atmosphere, or flow into rivers and oceans.
