Option C. 3 and 4

Explanation:

Movement of water in a cycle on the earth surface is called water cycle or hydrological cycle. In this cycle, water which is present in the ocean are converted into vapours in the process of evaporation. These water vapor goes upward and make clouds. When these clouds gets heavier so they come to the ground in the form of rainfall and snowfall. This water is collected into streams. After that, this water collects in the river which takes this water to the ocean and repeat the process again.
