What is the shared importance of dust and sea-salt particles in cloud physics?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: They can act as condensation nuclei and assist droplet formation
The governing concept is the role of aerosols as cloud-condensation nuclei. Water vapour condenses more readily when it encounters a suitable tiny surface, and dust or sea-salt particles can provide that surface. The resulting droplets may grow into clouds and precipitation. Option C is correct; the other options do not describe any established role of these atmospheric particles.
