The water cycle represents circulation and recycling of the water in nature.

Liquid water on planet surface is heated by the sun and gets transformed into water vapor which gains the atmosphere. In atmosphere, large amounts of water vapor, form clouds which when cooled precipitate liquid water in the form of rain. Thus, water comes back to planet surface and cycle is completed. As possible steps of cycle, water may still be stored within the subterranean reservatory or under the form of ice in the mountains and oceans and it can also be used in metabolism of living beings, included into body of individuals or released through the urine, feces, and through the transpiration.
