If small liquid drops are continuously falling from a cloud but they are not large raindrops, which form is likely?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Drizzle

Direct answer: C is correct. Drizzle is a form of light precipitation made of very small liquid water drops. The drops are smaller than ordinary raindrops and usually fall gently or slowly from a low, fairly uniform cloud layer. The key clues are that the particles are liquid, small, and falling continuously. A hailstorm consists of solid balls or lumps of ice, so A is wrong. Snowfall consists mainly of ice crystals or snowflakes, not small liquid drops, so B is wrong. Frost is ice deposited on a surface when conditions allow it to form; it is not falling liquid precipitation, so D is wrong. The wording “liquid drops” separates drizzle from snow and hail, while “small” separates it from ordinary rain. Memory cue: fine liquid drops falling lightly = drizzle.
