Water is part of a continuous cycle in which liquid water falls to the Earth's surface, is evaporated back into the atmosphere, and condenses into clouds that produce precipitation. The water that covers over 70% of the Earth's surface stabilizes the weather and climate of the Earth. Water droplets tend to clump together in drops instead of spreading out in a thin film, allowing it to move through the roots of plants and through blood vessels in the human body. In freezing temperatures, ice rises to the top of lakes and provides an insulating layer that keeps the rest of the water from freezing.
