In which condition is precipitation most likely?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Droplets in the cloud become large and heavy

Correct answer: A. Precipitation means water falling from the atmosphere to the ground as rain, snow, sleet, or hail. In a cloud, very small droplets or ice particles may remain suspended because air currents support them. Through condensation, collision, coalescence, or freezing and melting processes, these particles can grow. When they become sufficiently large and heavy, gravity overcomes the upward support of the air, and they fall as precipitation. A gives the necessary condition in this question. B is wrong because completely dry air does not provide the moisture needed for cloud droplets. C is wrong because water vapour is an important source of cloud moisture. D is wrong because very light droplets can remain floating in the cloud. Memory cue: “growth plus gravity produces falling precipitation.”
