Which of the following statements is not true about hail formation?

Hailstones grow by repeated collisions with supercooled water droplets and ice crystals within the cloud Hail requires strong updrafts within a thunderstorm cloud to keep hailstones suspended and growing The layered structure of hailstones reflects the changing conditions they experience during their growth Hailstones typically form in the warmest part of a thunderstorm cloud, near the cloud base
