The stages of the hydrological cycle are:
1. Evaporation: The process where water changes from a liquid to a gas or vapor, primarily from bodies of water like oceans, lakes, and rivers, and from the surface of the land.
2. Transpiration: The release of water vapor from plants into the atmosphere, essentially evaporation from plant leaves.
3. Condensation: The process where water vapor in the atmosphere cools and changes back into liquid water, forming clouds.
4. Precipitation: Water released from clouds in the form of rain, snow, sleet, or hail.
5. Collection (or Accumulation): Water that falls as precipitation gathers in rivers, lakes, oceans, and groundwater. Some of this water may flow over the land surface as runoff.
