Answer: B. evaporation, condensation, precipitation

Step-by-step explanation:

The Hydrological Cycle is the process by which water moves from the surface to the atmosphere and then back again. It is important for various reasons one of which is that it is vital for carrying out metabolic processes.

The cycle involves the evaporation of water from the surface which turns water into water vapor. This vapor then becomes liquid and forms clouds when it gets to the atmosphere in the condensation process.

It then falls back down to the surface when the clouds formed become too heavy in the process of precipitation/ rain.
