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

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Different parts of cloud can have different temperatures

Correct answer: A. A cloud is not a single solid object with one identical temperature everywhere. It contains moist air, tiny liquid droplets, and sometimes ice crystals. Because a cloud can extend through considerable height, its different parts may have different temperatures. In colder regions, some water freezes into ice crystals, while in relatively warmer regions liquid droplets can remain present. Thus both forms may coexist in the same cloud. Option A is correct because temperature variation explains the coexistence. Option B is wrong because clouds are made of suspended water particles, not rock. Option C is wrong because water vapour is essential to cloud formation. Option D is wrong because many clouds are suspended above the ground. Memory cue: different cloud temperatures allow liquid water and ice to exist together.
