Sleet forms from which type of precipitation? snowflakes, ice crystals, rain droplets, freezing rain

Freezing Rain

Explanation: There are different types of precipitation. They are rain, snow, hail and sleet.

They all come from the clouds. They are made up from the water that is present in the sky.

Sleet is like slush that falls from the sky. It forms when the raindrop freezes into ice as they reach the ground. They are smaller as compared to hail.

Sleet is ice when it reaches the warm air and gets converted into rain and then suddenly the freezing rain cools down into snow pellets due to the cold environment.

Option (4)

Explanation:

Sleet is a type of precipitation that often occurs in association with snow or rain that eventually freezes and gives rise to the formation of ice pellets before it strikes the ground surface. It occurs only under a specific type of weather conditions.

It often precipitates in the form of small and hard ice pieces. It is not so destructive in nature like the freezing rain, hail or heavy snowfall. It usually gets bounced when strikes any hard surface.

Thus, the correct answer is option (4).
