Simran and Ria were enjoying dancing in the rain. Suddenly, a question struck Ria's mind: "How does rain fall on Earth?" To this, her elder sister Simran explained the water cycle: how clouds are formed when water evaporates due to the heating of water bodies, rises, expands, and cools to form tiny droplets that grow larger to form clouds, which then sprinkle rainwater onto the Earth.
