The correct response is: The water cycle helps recycle and transport water around the planet. The cycle replenishes the water supply of ecosystems. The water cycle is important for ecosystems because it ensures a consistent supply of water, which is necessary for plants and animals to survive. Without the water cycle, water would be stagnant and not distributed evenly, leading to droughts or floods in different areas. The water cycle also helps to regulate temperature and weather patterns, providing a stable environment for ecosystems to thrive.
