Explanation by: Mr. Dubey

Frontal rain occurs when a warm air mass (typically tropical) meets a cold air mass (usually polar). The warm air, being lighter, rises over the cold air. As it rises, it cools down, and the moisture in it condenses to form clouds and rain. This process is associated with weather fronts, particularly warm and occluded fronts.

So, option (A) correctly describes the cause of frontal rain.
