Which of these conclusions is correct about the processes m, n, and r in the diagram? m represents evaporation and n represents transpiration. r represents transpiration and m represents precipitation. r represents evaporation and m represents condensation. m represents precipitation and n represents condensation.

Option (1)

Explanation:

In the given figure, the interaction between the atmosphere and the land is shown and the processes that undergo here are shown in the form of arrows with direction.

The letters M and N indicate evaporation and transpiration respectively.

Evaporation is the process by which the water changes its form from liquid to vapor. Here due to the sunlight, the water present on the surface gets evaporates and are released into the atmosphere.

Transpiration is the process by which the plants take in water to their roots for their growth and expansion. The excess water present is liberated into the atmosphere through their leaves.

Hence the correct answer is option (1).
