The best description of what is happening in the diagram of a warm front is:
**B. A warm air mass is colliding with and riding over a cold air mass.**
In a warm front, the warm air rises over the colder, denser air. This process typically leads to cloud formation and precipitation as the warm air cools and condenses.
