The right answer is Condensation, precipitation, runoff, ocean storage .

Water circulates without stopping on the Earth. The sun makes the water of oceans and seas (or other water sources) evaporate in fine droplets. By grouping together (condensation), they form clouds that, pushed by the wind, encounter masses of cold air and give birth to rain (precipitation). Rainwater seeps into the ground (runoff) and reaches the water tables, springs, rivers, and finally the ocean to endlessly repeat the same travel.
