🔍 Key Concepts

• Cloud altitude levels (high, middle, low) and which families each option belongs to • Typical appearance: wispy/feathery vs layered/blanket vs lumpy/heap-like • Difference between cirrus clouds and alto- (middle-level) layered or lumpy clouds

💭 Think About

• Look at where cloud 1 sits on the altitude scale in the illustration: is it in the high, middle, or low level band? • Does cloud 1 look thin and fibrous, like ice-crystal streaks, or more like a uniform sheet or lumpy patches? • Which of the listed cloud types are normally found at high levels and made mostly of ice crystals?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify the altitude range shown for cloud 1 against the typical heights for cirrus vs alto- clouds • Check whether the drawing for cloud 1 shows wispy, hair-like streaks or a solid layer • Eliminate any options that are primarily low-level rain clouds rather than high, fair‑weather indicators
