The answer is 1. A tree is likely to be hit by lightning because it provides a path of less resistance between the ground and the cloud overhead. The ground and the tree are raised to a high potential relative to the ground that is further away.
When you stand under a tree and it is hit by lightning, there is a high possibility that the lightning will hit you too
