Solution

The correct option is C

Air current moves upwards, water droplets move downwards


During the development of a thunderstorm, the air currents move upward while the water droplets move downwards. Air rises upwards due to which the cloud becomes large and the water in the cloud becomes heavy. Raindrops start to fall through the cloud when the rising air can no longer hold them up.
