Question

which is part of the process in the formation of hail pellets? they are tossed up and down in clouds. they lose layers of ice and grow smaller. they grow to less than 5 mm in diameter. they form ice crystals directly from water vapor.

Explanation:

Hail forms in strong thunderstorm clouds with updrafts and downdrafts. These air currents toss developing hailstones up and down through supercooled water, adding layers of ice each time they pass through, making them grow larger. Hail is defined as being over 5 mm in diameter, and it does not lose layers to shrink, nor does it form directly from water vapor (that process forms snow or frost).

Answer:

They are tossed up and down in clouds.
