Hail is formed when the water droplets freeze together in the cold upper region of the thundercloud. These lumps of ice are called hailstones. Most hailstones are between 5 mm and 15 cm in diameter and can be round or jagged. Hail stones are not frozen raindrops.

                        Factors that govern the ultimate size of hailstones are hail has strong storm clouds, especially strong heat, high liquid water content, large vertical range, large water droplets, and many cloud layers are formed by clouds below 0 ° C (32 ° F). This type of intense heat may also indicate the presence of a tornado.

Answer:

Diffusion is the spreading of something more widely. When you drop a sugar cube in hot tea the sugar cube spreads out and the sugar starts to dissolve in the tea. Osmosis is a process by which molecules of a solvent tend to pass through a semipermeable membrane from a less concentrated solution into a more concentrated one, thus equalizing the concentrations on each side of the membrane. If the concentration of water molecules ouside the cell is lower than the concentration of water molecules outside the cell then the water moves out through osmosis. Water travels through the cell membrane.

Answer:

<em>Clostridium perfringens</em>

Explanation:

<em>Clostridium perfringens</em> is a bacterium characterized by being a large, gram-positive, boxcar-shaped bacillus.

It is part of the facultative aerobic bacteria group (they can survive both in the presence or absence of oxygen) and is also a spore-forming bacterium (spores are small structures capable of generating new bacteria).

<em>Clostridium perfringens</em> can cause food poisoning, which results from the ingestion of contaminated food (usually meat and animal products) by the bacteria.

Once in the small intestine, the bacteria releases the toxin that usually causes diarrhea.
