Which answer choice a pair of terms that are the most similar in reference to the water cycle?

Precipitation and percolation
Precipitation and runoff
Condensation and percolation
Transpiration and evaporation
Correct answer:
Transpiration and evaporation
Explanation:
Transpiration is the evaporation of water from plants. Both terms can be defined as the conversion of liquid water on Earth into atmospheric water vapor. Condensation is the formation of clouds from water vapor. Precipitation is the release of water from clouds down towards the earth in the form of rain, hail, sleet or snow. Percolation is the seeping of water through the ground into groundwater sources like aquifers. Runoff is excess water on the superficial soil layers that cannot percolate into the ground.
