What is the main basis for distinguishing mist from fog?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Range of visibility

Correct answer: B, range of visibility. Mist and fog are both made of very small water droplets suspended near the ground. The important difference used in school geography is how much they reduce visibility. Fog is denser and reduces visibility more severely, while mist is usually thinner and allows a greater viewing distance. Therefore, visibility—not rainfall, soil, or the Sun’s distance—is the deciding basis. A is wrong because mist and fog are not classified by the amount of rain. C is unrelated to atmospheric moisture. D has no role in distinguishing them. Memory cue: thicker fog means poorer visibility; thinner mist means comparatively better visibility.
