Answer 1

During the water cycle, the following statements are accomplished:

1. Water is redistributed around Earth. - This is true as the water cycle involves processes such as evaporation, condensation, precipitation, and infiltration, which move water through different parts of the Earth.

2. Solar energy is absorbed. - This is also true as the process of evaporation requires solar energy, and thus, solar energy is absorbed during the water cycle.

The other statements, "All water is cleaned and safe to drink" and "New water molecules are made," are not accurate in the context of the water cycle. The water cycle does not guarantee that all water becomes clean and safe to drink, nor does it create new water molecules; it merely cycles existing water.
