±      The amount of water vapour in the air is
                           called humidity     . Water vapour rises up and

                           condenses on the dust particles present in
                           the air into tiny droplets of water.

                    As more and more water vapours are formed,

                    they combine together to form clouds. These
                    tiny droplets of water then combine together

                    to form bigger droplets of water.                                               Rotation

                    When these clouds reach a point of saturation, they are not able to hold water
                    droplets any longer and they fall down as rain. In very cold areas, they fall as

                    snow.

                             Air acts as a protective blanket around the Earth. This blanket is

                             called atmosphere.
