Question

How does most ocean water return to the ocean in the water cycle?

Through precipitation over the ocean
By flowing through rivers and streams
Through runoff on Earth's surface
By wind blowing water back to the ocean

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Water eventually returns to the ocean as precipitation that falls directly into the sea and as precipitation that falls on land and flows to the ocean through rivers. Less water evaporates over the land than falls onto land as precipitation.
