Two models are described in words. Model 1 is a straight line: ocean -> cloud -> rain -> river. Model 2 is a cycle with rivers, groundwater, ice, plants, atmosphere, and repeated paths. Which model better represents Earth's water movement and why?
A
Model 2, because gravity works only in diagrams with more arrows
B
Model 1, because groundwater and plants are not part of the water cycle
C
Model 2, because water moves among many reservoirs and can follow multiple repeating paths
D
Model 1, because a shorter model is always more scientific
