How can the contribution of atmospheric particles to ice-crystal formation be understood?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Some particles can act as ice nuclei
Under suitable sub-freezing conditions, certain atmospheric particles provide surfaces on which water can freeze or deposit as ice. Such particles are called ice-nucleating particles or ice nuclei. They can influence cloud microphysics, precipitation, and the balance between supercooled droplets and ice crystals. Option A correctly describes this role. The other options involve impossible transformations and are unrelated to cloud formation.
