AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) Cirrostratus, altostratus, stratus. This answer is correct because the cloud types are listed in sequence from highest to lowest in the sky. Cirrostratus clouds are the highest, formed at high altitudes, followed by altostratus clouds at middle altitudes, and finally stratus clouds, which are the lowest cloud type. The other answer choices are incorrect because they do not follow the proper sequence of cloud types from highest to lowest in the sky.
