Correct answer: Cold Front

A cold front is defined as the transition zone where the cold air is substituting the warm air. The air that is behind the cold front is drier and colder than the air that is ahead of it. The air cools down as it rises and the moisture condensed to produce clouds and precipitation. As they pass through they can cause a drop in temperature.

Hence, the correct answer would be cold front.
