Answer:

Option B

Step-by-step explanation:

Water rises into the atmosphere in the form of water vapor. Water vapor is a gas, which means that solid or liquid water must receive enough heat energy from the Sun to change into gas.

First, the water vapor condenses. Condensation is the change of water from gas form to liquid form. When water vapor in the atmosphere loses heat and cools down, condensation happens. As the water vapor cools down and condenses, it attaches to small particles of dust floating in the atmosphere, forming tiny liquid water droplets. These liquid water droplets are so small that they can float in the atmosphere. This is what forms clouds.When condensation occurs on the ground, it forms dew. You can see dew on grass early in the morning when temperatures are cool.
