Question

How does the Sun's energy power the water cycle?

1)

Heat from the Sun's rays turns liquid water into vapor during the process of evaporation.


2)

Solar flares melt glaciers.


3)

Solar winds move clouds.


4)

Solar energy reflects off the Moon at night, causing evaporation.


Question 2
How does the Sun's energy power the carbon cycle?


1)

Oceans use sunlight to absorb carbon dioxide form the atmosphere


2)

Animals use sunlight and oxygen in the process of respiration.


3)

Plants use sunlight and carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to power photosynthesis.


4)

Heat from the sun causes plants to lose carbon dioxide in the process of transpiration.

Answer 1

the answer to the first question would be Heat from the suns rays turn water into vapor during the evaporation process. the sun starts the water cycle this way. the answer to the second question would be Plants use sunlight and carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to power photosynthesis. which is very true

Answer 2

1. The sun is the energy that power the water cycle without the sun the water cycle is not possible so the sun is the source of energy and is the most important part of the water cycle.

2. Plants use sunlight and carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to power photosynthesis.
