Question: Which of these processes are involved in causing rain? A. evaporation B. condensation C. both evaporation and condensation. Explain your answer.
Reference answer: Water evaporates to form vapor. The vapor condenses to form raindrops.

Student answer: The reason condensation makes rain is because a lake evaporates and then it condenses and then it rains back into the lake.

Student answer: Evaporation because when water evaporates it is the water that will become rain and if water did not evaporate there would be no rain.

Student answer: Both evaporation and condensation are processes that involve causing rain because first, when there is a cup of water, the sun would evaporate the water and turn it into water vapor, then the water vapor would touch a cool surface and start condensation. Then the condensation would go to the clouds and cause rain.

Student answer: Because first it evaporates then it turns into condensation then it rains.

Student answer: Condensation is involved in causing rain is because when rain falls it is called precipitation and then falls on a cool surface and that is called condensation.

Student answer: Well when the water is anywhere evaporation picks up the water and turns it into water vapor and so on and so on.

Student answer: Because evaporation evaporates goes up in the air and makes clouds forms a bigger cloud and that cloud gets role of water and then it rains.

Student answer: Because evaporation and condensation can go into the clouds.

Student answer: I chose both evaporation and condensation because when water evaporates it turns into water vapor when there is enough it forms rain clouds then condensation happens and forms rain.

Student answer: Because the water from the 38 grams went into the air and became clouds and make the air more sticky.

Student answer: Was evaporation makes a cloud full of water vapor then that cloud becomes rain.

Student answer: Well evaporation makes water go into the air which sometimes go into clouds, and condensation makes water rain down on us.

Student answer: Because water evaporates and makes condensation and condensation makes clouds and clouds make rain.

Student answer: Because but evaporation is air condensation is like cloud and rain.

Student answer: Because evaporation causes the water to go up in the air, and condensation makes clouds which eventually form precipitation or rain.

Student answer: Evaporation evaporates water into clouds. Condensation makes clouds.

Student answer: Because water gets evaporated.

Student answer: They both have something to do with rain because evaporation evaporates the water into the air and makes it water vapor. The water vapor condenses and makes clouds filled with water and then the cloud touches a cool surface and condensation makes the liquid water back into water and it rains.

Student answer: I chose C evaporation and condensation because one cannot happen without the other.

Student answer: I picked a because that is it causes rain.

Student answer: They are both involved because water evaporate to the clouds, the it rains, then it condensates.

Student answer: Because water will evaporate from a cool place and water vapor will go into the clouds and will hit a cool place and form condensation.

Student answer: The reason why I chose this answer is because condensation causes fog.

Student answer: Evaporation and condensation happen in the rain because the water evaporates from the ground and hits a cooler surface and turns into condensation.

Student answer: I choose this answer because in the water cycle from the ocean some water evaporates into a cloud until it cannot hold it anymore and then it rains.

Student answer: Evaporation is a process involving rain because the water evaporates and turns into clouds.

Student answer: I picked A because the water evaporates then goes into the cloud that cools it down then it rains then it starts all over again.

Student answer: Evaporation in the sky it evaporation into the sky it make rain.

Student answer: I think C. Because water evaporates and goes in the clouds and falls down as rain.

Student answer: Both evaporation and condensation are involved in causing rain. Evaporation forms clouds and condensation makes it rain.

Student answer: Because evaporation is when water goes into the air.

Student answer: The water from lakes, rivers, oceans, canals, evaporates into the clouds and when the clouds get full of water it rains.

Student answer: Because the air in the cloud condensed into rain and the rain came down on the earth.

Student answer: You need both, evaporation and condensation to make it rain. It goes like this. First it rains, second the water goes into the ocean. The water heats up and evaporates in the air. Then in the clouds it cools. Then it condenses and rains again.

Student answer: When water evaporates it goes to the clouds and the cloud gets heavy and it rains.

Student answer: Evaporation is when the water vapor goes into the clouds. Condensation is when the water vapor turns into water.

Student answer: Evaporation and condensation are both involved in causing rain. Because, to have clouds water has to evaporate. And to rain the water in the cloud gets too heavy so it rains that is called condensation.

Student answer: Because the water cycle says it warms up, evaporates through the clouds, and cools, then it is condensation.

Student answer: I picked C. Because to cause rain it would have to have both evaporation and condensation.

Student answer: It needs evaporation to get the water, then the clouds soak it all up until it cannot hold any more. Then when it rains it is called condensation.

Student answer: Because the water needs to evaporate and go into the clouds or air to fall down and make condensation.

Student answer: Because evaporation makes the cloud, while condensation lets the cloud lose water.

Student answer: First water has to evaporate into the air. When it builds up in the clouds it rains.

Student answer: Because to get water in the clouds you need water vapor which is evaporated and then to get rain you need condensation.

Student answer: To get the rain water into clouds, the water has to evaporate into vapor. As clouds to make rain come down the vapor has to condense. Then rain falls and the process starts over.

Student answer: In order to rain you need evaporation because the water evaporates into the air and you need condensation to rain it down.

Student answer: Both evaporation and condensation, because, evaporation forms condensation which goes to the clouds and then the clouds rain and then the process starts over again.

Student answer: Evaporation turns water in water vapor so water vapor get in the clouds. Condensation make water vapor turns into water and rain.

Student answer: How it rains is it evaporates and then it rains from the clouds.

Student answer: To make rain clouds you need water, water vapor is water that has been evaporated.

Student answer: When evaporation it up in the air when the air cools and then water to water condensation and fall to the ground as rain.

Student answer: Evaporation because when water evaporates it goes into the air and forms clouds. The rain rains down from the clouds.

Student answer: Water needs to evaporate into the sky and then condense into clouds which causes rain to fall.

Student answer: Since when water evaporates it goes in clouds then when it condenses and it comes down as rain.

Student answer: Because you need condensation in the clouds for it to rain and if it does not evaporate it will not be able to rain.

Student answer: Because condensation is when water vapor changes to water which is rain. Evaporation is when water changes to water vapor going up to the clouds.

Student answer: Because the water on the ground evaporated became water vapor came to the clouds, the water condensed plus rained.

Student answer: Because when it is water vapor it turns into rain back into water.

Student answer: If water never evaporated condensation could never happen.

Student answer: Because you need the water to evaporate then condensation makes it turn back into water and then it rains.

Student answer: I said evaporation because condensation it gets on the outside of the cup and evaporation with when water goes into the sky.

Student answer: Because evaporation is when water goes into the air and travels to the atmosphere then condenses becomes water again to make a cloud.

Student answer: Because it goes into the air and into the clouds and the clouds rain that water that evaporates.

Student answer: Because when water evaporates it goes up and when you get a lot up there it condenses and comes down as rain, snow, sleet, hail?

Student answer: Because when cool water melts hot water.

Student answer: Because evaporation causes water vapor to form clouds, then condensation turns water vapor into the rain that falls from the sky.

Student answer: I do not know what condensations means, that is why I picked it, because evaporation means water just disappears.

Student answer: Because, when it rains it is called condensation and when it evaporates up to the clouds it rains again. So it makes the water cycle.

Student answer: The water has to evaporate into the clouds and condenses rain.

Student answer: Liquid water evaporate from earth up into the air. Then it forms clouds, and become a liquid or condense. Then it will precipitate, or fall as rain.

Student answer: C, because you have to have the whole cycle for rain to happen.

Student answer: Evaporation and condensation have to happen so precipitation can happen.

Student answer: Because evaporation gets the water up into the air and condensation makes the water vapor drops of water and soon after that it rains.

Student answer: The water cycle. You need to have passed evaporation and condensation to have precipitation or rain fall.

Student answer: Because, water has to evaporate to create clouds, and condensate to rain.

Student answer: Evaporation makes the clouds pouring, and condensation is the clouds!

Student answer: Both evaporation and condensation because they both have to do something with rain.

Student answer: Because to make rain water has to evaporate from the ocean and then there has to be condensation for rain to be made.

Student answer: Clouds are what causes rain. The water that made the clouds evaporated and then condensed.

Student answer: Because water evaporates and rises in the air to form clouds.

Student answer: Water evaporates from the ground and condense into clouds and eventually into rain.

Student answer: Evaporation and condensation cause rain to happen.

Student answer: Rain can be in a puddle and evaporate.

Student answer: I think that because if the evaporation did not happen how could the clouds form then get heavier a rain? So that's why I think so.

Student answer: Evaporation sends the water into the atmosphere, condensation forms a cloud and rain comes from clouds and rain is called precipitation.

Student answer: The water in the clouds condenses back into precipitation and precipitation is rain or snow.

Student answer: Both because evaporation makes clouds and the condensation in the clouds gets so heavy it precipitates rains.

Student answer: Because it turns from water liquid to gas. Called condensation.

Student answer: When the evaporation takes places the condensation make the droplets on the window.

Student answer: Because at my house when it rains by the next day it had evaporate and left condensation on our windows.

Student answer: I think both are because evaporation brings up groundwater and then it condenses which makes rain so yes it is C.

Student answer: Because if you put some color water in a cup with no lid it will evaporate then when it is in the clouds it will rain down.

Student answer: Evaporation because it cannot rain if the water does not go into the air. Clouds.

Student answer: I disagree. Evaporation happens in every temperature. But has more evaporating in High temperature.

Student answer: I looked at a chart.

Student answer: Because when water vapor is in the air the rain falls down and turns into condensation.

Student answer: Because when water evaporates it goes to the clouds so it gets fuller when it is really full it causes rain.

Student answer: Evaporation because it goes up in the cloud and then it rains.

Student answer: Because it evaporated up to the air then it becomes condense the turns to cloud. Then starts to rain.

Student answer: Condensation when the rain falls it goes under the ground than evaporation.
