How is matter conserved in the water cycle?

a. Water absorbs energy and later releases the same amount of energy.

b. People manage water resources, such as wells, so they do not run out of water.

c. Some forms of water, such as ice in a glacier, may remain in the same location for years.

d. Water changes from one form to another, but the total amount of water remains the same.

d. Water changes from one form to another, but the total amount of water remains the same.

Obviously, since matter must be conserved, the amount of water will never change.
