Water vapour condenses to form tiny droplets of water in the upper layer of air where it is cooler.
Report Question
0%
True
0%
False
Explanation
Water vapour on cooling changes from gaseous state to liquid state. So tiny droplets of water is present in the upper layer of air as it is cool. Hence it is true.

0%
under the ground remains constant.
0%
in the seas and oceans of the world remains constant.
0%
All of these
Explanation
Water evaporates from the surface of the earth, rises into the atmosphere, cools and condenses into rain or snow, falls as precipitation, and then collects on land in the oceans, rivers, lakes, and soil, and the cycle begins again. Well, that's why the amount of water on earth remains constant.
