What is the main exam-worthy difference between frost and snowfall?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Frost deposits on surface while snowfall falls from clouds

Correct answer: B. Frost is a surface deposit. It forms when moisture near a cold surface changes directly into ice crystals or freezes on that surface, usually under sufficiently cold conditions. Snowfall is precipitation: ice crystals or snowflakes develop in clouds and then fall through the atmosphere to the ground. Thus the important distinction is where the ice forms and how it reaches the ground. A is wrong because the processes are not identical. C is physically irrelevant and false. D is wrong because snowfall originates from atmospheric water in clouds and is therefore related to water vapour. Memory cue: frost forms on; snow falls from.
