What are the cause of sand and dust storms.
Thunderstorms, which increase wind speed over a wide area.
Can dust particles also influence the growth of cloud droplets and ice crystals.YES OR NO.
Yes, affecting the amount and location of precipitation.

Worsen.
Name one region on the earth where dust storms occur commonly.
Northern Africa, the Arabian Peninsula, Central Asia and China
Which factors do dust factors need to have to be absorbed by solar radiation. (size and shape, or how many dust particles there are)
size, shape, also mineralogical and chemical composition.
What continent has the most deadly case of deathly disease from dust particles.
Africa, the disease is called meningitis belt, a bacterial infection of the thin tissue layer that surrounds the brain and spinal cord, can result in brain damage and, if untreated, death in 50% of cases.
Does dust storms give humans better or worse visibility while on planes/boats/ or cars.
Worse, it can delay airplane flights or even worse, it can damage engines.
What happens to the dust particles while turbulent mixing and convective updrafts happens in the troposphere atmosphere.
Dust particles are raised to higher levels of the troposphere
Airborne dust functions can create what kind of effect.
The greenhouse effect.
Can dust particles affect external or internal human organs if they breath it in.
EXTERNAL, but if the particles are small enough it can enter your blood stream, entering into your internal organs, but its rare.
