Which point(s) in the water cycle below best illustrate(s) water changing to a gas, and which term(s) could describe it?

A. 1; sublimation & evaporation
B. 2; evaporation only

Answer (3)

The answer is evaporation only because it's mostly water evaporating, and ice rarely sublimates in natural climates. Hope this helps!

The answer is evaporation. This is because sublimination is a solid immediately changing to a gas, without passing through liquid state. Hoped I helped.

The point that best illustrates water changing to a gas in the water cycle is point 2, which depicts evaporation. Therefore, the correct answer is option B, referring to evaporation only. Evaporation occurs when liquid water is heated by the sun and transforms into water vapor.
