Jayden wants to model the hydrological cycle. He puts some water in a small plastic cup, draws a line on the cup at the water level, and places the cup upright on a window sill. After three days of being undisturbed, the amount of water in the cup is below the line Jayden drew. This is an example of:

A. Transpiration
B. Evaporation
C. Condensation
D. Precipitation

evaporation...evaporation occurs when it is warmer and the particles get further apart so they kinda drift off and go their own way(they turn into a gas) then the water in the cup has a less amount so that is why the water is below the line
