Water bodies present in lakes, dams, and rivers vaporize from the hotness of the earth. It is the sun's heat that dries up water in the form of vapors, The vapors in the atmosphere condense together to form clouds. The clouds move in the sky with the flow of air. When it is full of water, precipitates in the form of rain, snow, or hail. In this way, water comes back to the earth and completes the water cycle.
