The Hydrologic Cycle Model

Question 20

Multiple Choice

 The hydrologic cycle model.Water travels endlessly through the hydrosphere,atmosphere,lithosphere,and biosphere.The triangles show global average values as percentages.Note that all evaporation (86% + 14% = 100%) equals all precipitation (78% + 22% = 100%) and that advection in the atmosphere is balanced by surface runoff,streamflow,and groundwater flow when all of Earth is considered.   What percentage of evaporation occurs over oceans? A) 97 B) 86 C) 71 D) 14 E) 20 The hydrologic cycle model.Water travels endlessly through the hydrosphere,atmosphere,lithosphere,and biosphere.The triangles show global average values as percentages.Note that all evaporation (86% + 14% = 100%) equals all precipitation (78% + 22% = 100%) and that advection in the atmosphere is balanced by surface runoff,streamflow,and groundwater flow when all of Earth is considered.
