B) Lakes and ponds
C) Glaciers and groundwater
D) Rivers and streams

Use the information in this box to answer questions

The models below show water molecules in 4 different samples of water vapor.

2

Which sample most likely has the lowest temperature? (2 pts)

A) Sample A
B) Sample B
C) Sample C
D) Sample D

2

A student takes Sample B and adds heat. Which model best shows the particles in the sample after it has been heated? (2 pts)

A) Sample A
B) Sample B
C) Sample C
D) Sample D

2

What could a student do to get one of these samples to change into a liquid? (2 pts)

A) Raise (increase) its temperature so it evaporates
B) Raise (increase) its temperature so it condenses
C) Lower its temperature so it evaporates
D) Lower its temperature so it condenses

Use the information in this box to answer questions 6 - 8

Alejandro is studying weather. He gets weather data from 3 cities. A map of the 3 cities is shown below. Use the weather data and the map to answer the questions that follow.

2

What process causes water to move from the land or the ocean into the atmosphere?

A) Evaporation
B) Condensation
C) Precipitation
D) Sedimentation



Criteria For Success:
  1. Think of the temperature during the daytime
  2. Think of the phase change that happens during the day time
  3. Identify the city that would have the most water moving into the atmosphere during the day
  4. Use evidence from BOTH the weather data and the map to support your claim.
  5. Explain the phase change that causes water to move into the atmosphere, include the temperature
5

In which city (Atlanta, New York, or Wilmington) would you expect to see the most water moving into the atmosphere during the day? Why? (5 pts)

Claim: The city that would have the most water moving during the day is ________________.

Evidence:
In the weather data, it shows ______________
On the map, it shows _______________

Reasoning:
________________ City would have the most water in the atmosphere during the day because ________________

2

The next week the temperature in New York, NY rises (increased) to 85° F. Would you expect more or less water to move into the atmosphere in New York? Why?

A) More water would evaporate because lower temperatures cause more evaporation
B) More water would evaporate because higher temperatures cause more evaporation
C) Less water would evaporate because lower temperatures cause less evaporation
D) Less water would evaporate because higher temperatures cause less evaporation



Criteria For Success:
  1. Explain how water goes through each phase of the the water cycle. Include the temperature of each phase change and how the distance between molecules change.
  2. Explain what is evaporation
  3. Explain what is condensation
  4. Explain what is precipitation
  5. Explain how raindrops form

Jesse is looking at a picture of Ferris Island. He is wondering why it rains a lot in West Ferris. Using what you have learned about how water travels, explain to Jesse why West Ferris gets more rain. (8 pts)

Claim: West Ferris gets more rain because ___________

Evidence: In the sim, it shows ___________

Reasoning:
Evaporation is ___________
Condensation is ___________
Precipitation is ___________
Raindrops form when ___________
