During the daytime, land heats up faster than the sea, causing air above the land to rise and cooler air from the sea to move towards the land, resulting in a land breeze.

Options

Option A

True

Option B is correct

False

Explanation

During the daytime, land heats up more quickly than the sea. The warm air above the land rises, and cooler, denser air from over the sea moves towards the land to take its place. This moving air is called a sea breeze. A land breeze occurs at night when the land cools faster than the sea.
