In the water cycle, water vapor evaporates into the atmosphere and forms clouds through condensation. what happens in the atmosphere to the water in order for the clouds to form? a) water drops mix with air pollution to form clouds. b) the evaporated water warms up and moves closer together. c) the evaporated water cools and drops get closer together. d) the sun heats the evaporated water and the water drops move faster.

C)The evaporated water cools and drops get closer together.

Water from the terrestrial or aquatic body sources such as lakes, ponds, rivers and oceans gets evaporated to the atmosphere in the form of water vapor. These vapors being lighter in density reach higher atmospheric layers. The water vapor molecules when aggregate in large amount get condense in the form of rain. The warm water vapor molecules cool down into the droplets of water by surrounding cool atmospheric air.

i say its d?

answer: - few nutrients

high pressure

low temperatures

explanation: 1. few nutrients:   open-ocean zone is located way far from the land, which is the main source of the essential nutrients.2. high pressure: pressure increases by 1 atmosphere for every 10 meters increase in depth.3. ample sunlight: a large fraction of the sunlight is reflected back to the atmosphere from the sea surface. 4. varying salinity: below the thermocline, the water is isolated from the atmosphere so the salinity remains stable over the year.5. low temperatures:   the temperature of open-ocean zone ranges from a low of -2°c to an average of 17°c
