How does the ice-crystal process help precipitation in cold clouds?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Ice crystals grow heavy and may melt while falling

The correct answer is A. In a cold cloud, ice crystals can grow as water vapour deposits on them or as supercooled droplets freeze onto them. Their increasing size and weight allow gravity to make them fall. If the air below the cloud is cold, they may reach the ground as snow or ice pellets; if they pass through a sufficiently warm layer, they can melt and reach the ground as rain. B is wrong because crystals do not always remain aloft. C and D are wrong because crystal growth can support precipitation rather than stop it. Cue: cold cloud crystals grow, fall, and may melt.
