Which cloud type can show very strong vertical development?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Cumulonimbus

Correct answer: A, cumulonimbus. Cumulonimbus clouds form when warm, moist air rises strongly through an unstable atmosphere. Powerful updrafts carry cloud material upward through a great depth, so the cloud can become tall, with a large vertical extent and sometimes an anvil-shaped top. These clouds may be associated with thunderstorms, heavy showers, lightning, hail, and strong gusts, although the exact weather varies. A is correct because cumulonimbus is the classic cloud of strong vertical development. B is wrong because cirrus is a high, thin, mainly ice-crystal cloud with little vertical thickness. C is wrong because mist is a shallow suspension of tiny droplets near the ground, not a tall cloud. D is wrong because dew is liquid water deposited on a surface, not a cloud. Memory cue: “cumulonimbus = towering storm cloud”; do not confuse it with flat stratus or wispy cirrus.
