Why is the type of precipitation affected by vertical temperature?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because falling snowflakes can melt into rain in a warm layer

Answer: C. Precipitation begins in a cloud as water droplets or ice particles, and its final form depends on the temperature layers it crosses while falling. If snowflakes remain below freezing all the way down, they may reach the ground as snow. If they pass through a sufficiently warm layer, they can melt and become liquid raindrops. If they melt and then refreeze in a colder layer, other forms such as sleet or ice pellets may occur. A is unrelated because river direction is controlled by relief and drainage, not this process. B is scientifically false: rocks do not normally form from air in precipitation. D is false because temperature controls whether water is solid or liquid. Memory cue: follow the particle downward and check each warm or cold layer.
