The stages of water, or the water cycle, include:
1. **Evaporation**: Water from oceans, rivers, and lakes heats up and transforms into water vapor, rising into the atmosphere.
2. **Condensation**: Water vapor cools and gathers into tiny droplets, forming clouds.
3. **Precipitation**: When droplets in clouds combine and grow heavy, they fall back to Earth as rain, snow, sleet, or hail.
4. **Collection**: Water collects in bodies of water, like rivers and lakes, or infiltrates the ground, replenishing aquifers, and the cycle begins again.
