13. Which of the following is the source of energy for the water cycle?
==> the sun

14. Which of the following statements about the water cycle is true?
==> Organisms in the biosphere do not influence the water cycle.

15. In what form is most carbon released into the atmosphere?
==> carbon dioxide (from combustion, plant decay, etc. Note: Carbon Monoxide is the result of incomplete combustion!)

16. In which stage of the water cycle does liquid water become a gas?
precipitation
==> evaporation (liquid water evaporates into steam)

17. The carbon cycle works in conjunction with which of the following?
==> all biogeochemical cycles (everything on this earth works together!)
