Water can leave the air as a result of which processes? A. infiltration or transpiration B. precipitation or evaporation C. evaporation or transpiration D. condensation or precipitation

The correct answer is: D) condensation or precipitation.

Explanation:

Condensation refers to the change in the state of water, from the gas phase into the liquid phase - making it the opposite of evaporation.

Precipitation is basically any product of the condensation of atmospheric water that falls under gravity. For precipitation to happen, the atmosphere must become saturated with water vapor.

Water in the air is normally in the gaseous phase and, in order to descend, it needs to go to the liquid state (rain).

D

Explanation:

The water in the air is in its gas form. The act of evaporation is water in its liquid form turning into gas. Condensation and precipitation both are acts of water in its gas form turning back into its liquid form.
