Last Answer : Answer: Option D
Description : Why does rain come in drops and not in a continuous stream?
Last Answer : When warm wet air rises, it cools and water vapour condenses to form clouds. A cloud is made of small drops of water or ice crystals, depending on its height and how cold its surrounding air is. ... Giant droplets fall rapidly. Thus drops keep on falling side by side and not in a continuous stream.
