Why can both water droplets and ice crystals be present in a cloud?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Different parts of a cloud may have different temperatures

Correct answer: A, different parts of a cloud may have different temperatures. A cloud is a collection of tiny liquid droplets, ice crystals, or both, suspended in air. Temperature changes with height, and a single cloud can extend through layers having different thermal conditions. In a warmer part, condensed water can remain liquid; in a colder part, water can freeze or exist as ice crystals. This is why liquid and solid particles may occur together. A is correct because it identifies temperature variation within the cloud. B is wrong because a cloud is not rock. C is wrong because clouds form from water vapour, even though the visible cloud consists mainly of condensed particles. D is wrong because clouds are in the atmosphere above the surface. Memory cue: warmer layer supports droplets; colder layer supports ice crystals.
