The sun heats the earth's water. this warm water turns into a vapor, and rises into the atmosphere, where it cools off. what happens to this water vapor? a. the water vapor evaporates and escapes into space. new water is formed by precipitation. b. the water vapor condenses as it cools, then it forms clouds. it later returns to the earth as precipitation. c. the water vapor only rises for a very short time, then settles back into the ocean unnoticed. d. the water vapor pushes clouds out of the way as it rises. this causes overcast conditions to clear.

B. The water vapor condenses as it cools, then it forms clouds. It later returns to the Earth as precipitation

Explanation:

Evaporation of water from the water bodies in the presence of heat from sun forms water vapors which in turn rise up in the atmosphere. This is followed by the cooling down of the water vapor and the formation of small water droplets. The process is called condensation and forms clouds.  

As the water droplets in clouds become larger, precipitation occurs which returns the water back to the water bodies and land. Evaporation, condensation, and precipitation are the major stages of the hydrological cycle on the earth.  

picture a world where computers are building made-to-order personalized robotic arms and synthetic organs, drones are circulating above mars! due to the rapid growth of technology, the future has never been more unpredictable, and it presents a huge challenge in education: we are teaching students how to work in a future that we have never been unsure of. it is widely predicted that in eight years’ time, there will be more jobs in the fields of science, mathematics, technology and engineering than in any other discipline. and, as the technology continues to develop, it will soon become clear that addressing social problems will involve more innovative thinking, and analytical and technical knowledge than ever before. undeniably, there are no subjects that encourage innovative and creative thinking, deep thought, problem solving and independence more than the stem subjects. while it is widely commented on that there is a need to reimagine the ways stem subjects are taught in schools by embracing a more interactive and innovative approach to appeal to more students, it should come as no surprise that some of the most reputable educational organizations in the world are already implementing changes to embrace stem. harvard, for example, announced in 2014 that they were increasing their computer science faculty by over 50% and has since introduced computer science as a core subject for all freshmen. the urgency of supporting stem subjects at a young age is becoming more relevant than ever, as adopting a keen interest in the curricula needs to happen early. however, beyond the age issue is one of gender.
