Which cloud can generally grow very tall and give stormy rain?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Cumulonimbus

Answer: A, Cumulonimbus. Cumulonimbus clouds have strong vertical development, meaning they extend upward through a deep layer of the atmosphere rather than remaining as a thin horizontal sheet. They form when warm, moist air rises rapidly and continues condensing as it cools. Their great height and vigorous internal air movement can produce heavy or stormy rain, thunder, lightning, and sometimes hail or strong gusts. A is correct because it is the cloud type most strongly associated with tall thunderstorm development. B, Cirrus, is high but thin and wispy, not a vertically massive storm cloud. C, light mist, consists of tiny droplets near the ground and is not a tall cloud system. D, dew, is liquid water deposited on a cool surface, not a cloud. Memory cue: “cumulus” suggests a heap and “nimbus” suggests precipitation; a tall rain-bearing heap is cumulonimbus.
