Solution

The correct option is C Condensation nuclei
These are tiny particles in the air that provide a surface for water vapor to condense onto.The nuclei enable condensed droplets to grow large enough to become a cloud or rain droplets.
In fact, condensation nuclei are not only the key to making clouds or rain but also, fog, haze and other forms of precipitation.
