Answer:
Clouds begin to form in the atmosphere when atmospheric heat causes evaporation of water on Earth.
Explanation:
- The process that we refer to as 'water cycle' can be said to begin with the action of evaporation that takes place in the atmosphere.
- When the Sun's rays heat up the atmosphere and gradually the surface water of any given open source of water, the water starts turning into vapors.
- These vapors get accumulated high above the Earth's surface to form clouds. These clouds later get condensed and precipitation occurs.
