Answer:

A) Diffracted.

Explanation:

Diffraction happens when light encounters an obstacle on its path and it bends around the corners of it or through tiny cracks.

In a cloud the light travels through it but when it hits with ice particles or water it diffracted through their edges causing what is called optical atmospheric diffraction.
