The answer to this question is B

The reason the answer is B is because of how the cycle works. In the beggining, water is heated up and evaporates into the atmosphere as water vapor. Then the water cools down and condensates, coming back down. The water then ends up back to the same temperature as the earth. So in the end, the entire cycle doesn't add or remove heat from the water.
