The pathways that water travels on Earth after falling as precipitation are:
A. Transpiration
B. Runoff
C. Infiltration
D. All of the above
E. None of the above



Answer :

The correct answer is D. All of the above.

After falling as precipitation (rain, snow, etc.), water can follow multiple pathways on Earth:

Transpiration: Water taken up by plants from the soil and released as water vapor through their leaves.

Runoff: Water that flows over the surface of the ground and enters streams, rivers, and lakes.

Infiltration: Water that seeps into the ground and enters the groundwater system, moving through pore spaces between soil particles or rocks.
