Which processes help return water to the oceans and lakes?

Question

snowmelt, streamflow, ground-water discharge

photosynthesis, condensation, infiltration

evaporation, transpiration, sublimation

water storage in ice, snow, atmosphere and ground

Answer 1

The processes that help return water to the oceans and lakes include:

Snowmelt, streamflow, ground-water discharge

These processes involve the melting of snow contributing to rivers and streams (snowmelt), the movement of water in streams and rivers (streamflow), and the discharge of groundwater into bodies of water (ground-water discharge).
