On what basis can the main difference between cyclonic and convectional rainfall be understood?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Cyclonic is linked to low pressure and convectional to surface heating

The correct answer is B because the two rainfall types are distinguished by their principal causes. Cyclonic, or frontal, rainfall is associated with low-pressure systems in which air masses converge and are forced to rise; the rising air cools, condenses, and produces precipitation. Convectional rainfall begins with strong surface heating. The heated air becomes buoyant, rises, cools at higher levels, and forms clouds and rain, often in heavy showers. A is false because neither type is defined simply by ice or dust. C is false because both have clear physical mechanisms. D is false because neither type occurs only on mountains. Memory cue: low pressure and convergence suggest cyclonic rain; heating and rising air suggest convectional rain.
