Understanding Zero Conditionals

The zero conditional describes events that are likely to happen in the present or future. If the condition occurs, the result will inevitably follow. Some examples are: If the wind blows, the heads move. If a coconut falls into the sea, it travels a long way. If an animal passes these plants, the seeds stick to its fur. If you heat water, it boils.
