Correct Answer: None of the above produces the thunder. Thunderstorm is a storm with lightning and thunder which is produced by cumulonimbus clouds. Thunder appears when lightning on crossing sky makes air around it so hot that it produces powerful explosion. Statement 1 is incorrect as thunder is not produced by meeting of giant cumulonimbus clouds but takes place in such clouds. Statement 2 is incorrect as thunder in sky is produced by lightning and not by separating nimbus clouds. Statement 3 is also incorrect as thunder in the sky is not produced by aggressive upward movement of air and water particles, but by expanding and contracting of air. As all given statements are incorrect, so correct option is D.
