The water cycle is balanced because the average annual precipitation on Earth equals the amount of water that evaporates. This balance ensures that the total amount of water in the cycle remains relatively stable over time, with water continuously moving through evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and return to bodies of water.

the amount of water that falls to Earth weighs the same as the amount that condenses in clouds
