Surgical supply technicians typically have between one and two years of postsecondary schooling. Certification and associate degree programs are offered by community colleges and vocational schools. For example, Wayne County Community College District in Michigan offer a one-year central service technician program.
The funny thing is that the water that falls from the sky as rain today, might have fallen last week, last month, last year or thousands of years ago. It is the greatest recycler of all time! There are four main stages in the water cycle. They are evaporation, condensation, precipitation and collection. Let's look at each of these stages. Evaporation: This is when warmth from the sun causes water from oceans, lakes, streams, ice and soils to rise into the air and turn into water vapour (gas).
The Water Cycle More than ninety percent of the Earth's water is locked beneath its surface either in crystal rocks or deep in the interior and does not take part in the water cycle. A large portion of the water that does participate in the water cycle comes from the Earth's oceans. Step 1: A large quantity of water evaporates from the surface of the ocean. Evaporation is the conversion of liquid water to a gaseous form of water called water vapor. Step 2: The water vapor then condenses to form clouds. Most of this condensed water will then precipitate back into the ocean, but some will travel on and eventually float over land. Precipitate means to condense from a vapor and fall as rain or snow. Step 3: The condensed water (clouds) that floats over land picks up more water vapor from evaporation and transpiration. Transpiration is the evaporation of water from the leaves of plants.
