Describe the change in phase and temperature as water moves from the oceans to the atmosphere and then returns to earth again as rain. a) evaporation : temperature increases; condensation : temperature decreases; precipitation (rain) : temperature decreases b) evaporation : temperature increases; condensation : temperature decreases; precipitation (rain) : temperature increases c) evaporation : temperature decreases; condensation : temperature decreases; precipitation (rain) : temperature decreases d) evaporation : temperature increases; condensation : temperature increases; precipitation (rain) : temperature decreases

The correct answer is: A) evaporation : temperature increases; condensation : temperature decreases; precipitation (rain) : temperature decreases

Evaporation is the process by which water is converted from its liquid state to the gaseous state, water vapor often due to increase in temperature under the influence of the Sun.

Condensation is the process by which water vapor is changed back into liquid water. In the atmosphere it appears as clouds, fog, mist, dew or frost. Condensation occurs when the temperature of air is lowered to its dew point.

Precipitiation or rain is a result of condensation:small water droplets must condense before the fall in the form of rain.

a is correct  :                                                        

the correct answer is:

a population changes in response to a change in the environment.
