The correct answer is:

A. Evaporation can occur when water gains energy from the sun and changes into water vapor.

This statement accurately describes the process of evaporation within the water cycle.

Option D is also partially correct but should mention that precipitation can form when water vapor condenses into droplets, not loses energy directly to create precipitation.

Choose A for the best description of a water cycle process.
