What is the primary source of energy that powers the Earth's water cycle?

The gravitational pull of the Moon

Which statement best explains why there would be almost no water vapor in the atmosphere without the Sun?

The Moon's gravity would hold all water on the surface.

Water would lack the energy needed to evaporate.

All water would be absorbed deep into the ground.

Clouds would be unable to form in the cold air.

Dish B will have less water, because shade helps water molecules escape.

Dish A will have less water, because direct solar energy provides more heat for evaporation.

Both dishes will have the same amount of water because the air temperature is the same everywhere.

Dish B will have more water, because the sun causes new water to form in Dish A.
