The correct answer is option 1: Condensation. Mist is the result of condensation, which is the process of water vapor turning into liquid water.

Condensation occurs when warm, moist air comes into contact with a cooler surface. As the air cools, it loses its capacity to hold water vapor, causing the water vapor to form into tiny droplets. These droplets are what we see as mist.

Option 2: Evaporation is not the correct answer because evaporation is the process of liquid water turning into water vapor, the opposite of condensation.

Option 3: Sublimation is not the correct answer either. Sublimation is the process of a solid turning directly into a gas without going through the liquid phase. In the case of water, sublimation occurs at very low temperatures and pressures.

Option 4: Saturation is also not the correct answer. Saturation refers to the point when the air is holding the maximum amount of water vapor it can at a given temperature. When saturation is reached, it can lead to condensation, but saturation itself is not the direct cause of mist.

In conclusion, mist is a result of condensation, where water vapor in the air turns into liquid water droplets due to cooling.
