The answer is the last one: the hydrologic cycle.

Explanation for each option:

  1. Hydrology element: This term refers to components or aspects of hydrology, the study of water, but it does not describe the continuous movement of water in the environment.
  2. Runoff cycle: This term refers to the part of the water cycle where water flows over the land surface, but it does not encompass the entire system of water movement.
  3. Precipitation index: This term refers to a measure of the amount of precipitation, but it does not describe the entire water cycle.
  4. Planet's relative humidity: This term refers to the amount of moisture in the air relative to the maximum amount the air can hold at a given temperature, but it does not describe the entire water cycle.
  5. Hydrologic cycle: This term accurately describes the continuous movement of water from the atmosphere to the land, plants, oceans, and freshwater bodies and then back into the atmosphere.

Summary: The hydrologic cycle is the system whereby water continuously moves from the atmosphere to the land, plants, oceans, and freshwater bodies and then back into the atmosphere.
