Clouds are forming along the front because the rising air is expanding and cooling, causing condensation (Option D).

  • Cloud formation occurs when water vapor cools and condenses to form liquid water droplets or solid ice crystals.

  • In a cloud, liquid water droplets are formed at temperatures higher than 0 Celsius degrees, while solid ice crystals are formed at temperatures lesser than 0 Celsius degrees.

  • In consequence, during cloud formation, the excess amount changes from water vapor (gas) into a liquid (water droplets) or solid (ice).

In conclusion, clouds are forming along the front because the rising air is expanding and cooling, causing condensation (Option D).
