The Water Cycle Explained: Evaporation, Condensation, Precipitation & Collection #233660 (License: Personal Use)

This educational illustration depicts the four main stages of the hydrologic cycle: evaporation (A) from oceans and surfaces, condensation (B) forming clouds, precipitation (C) as rain or snow, and collection (D) in bodies of water and land. Arrows indicate the continuous movement of water driven by solar energy, with the sun shown as the primary energy source. The diagram uses color-coded labels and simple icons for clarity in classroom or digital learning environments.

Used in K-12 science curricula, environmental education websites, and introductory earth science resources to teach the fundamentals of the hydrologic cycle; matches user intent for visual learning aids, homework help, or teacher lesson planning.
