On what basis are noctilucent clouds different from normal rain clouds?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: They are mainly associated with the very high mesospheric region
Noctilucent clouds are distinguished primarily by altitude and timing. They form at very high altitudes near the mesopause, within the upper mesosphere, where tiny ice crystals can reflect sunlight after sunset or before sunrise. They are not ordinary tropospheric rain clouds, do not form at sea level, and are not clouds of the exosphere. Therefore option A is correct.
