What causes lightning?-

Lightning is an electric current. Within a thundercloud way up in the sky, many small bits of ice (frozen raindrops) bump into each other as they move around in the air. All of those collisions create an electric charge. After a while, the whole cloud fills up with electrical charges. The positive charges or protons form at the top of the cloud and the negative charges or electrons form at the bottom of the cloud. Since opposites attract, that causes a positive charge to build up on the ground beneath the cloud. The grounds electrical charge concentrates around anything that sticks up, such as mountains, people, or single trees. The charge coming up from these points eventually connects with a charge reaching down from the clouds and - zap - lightning strikes!

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

A sanctimonious person is more likely to engage in civil disobedience movement.

Defining sanctimonious as an adjective implies putting up a big show about how the cause of an individual is superior and better than others.although the word inscribes some negative elements. but the quality of an individual with this behavior helps to provide for support against the unjust laws. Being vocal about the cause and generating a positive opinion for it can help civil disobedience movement to wider its reach. However, the argument is open to different interpretations.
