Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

Remembering that land masses heat up faster than the ocean and land masses lose heat more rapidly than the ocean is the key to understanding when and how land and sea breezes form. During the day, the land heats up faster than the ocean because of the land's lower heat capacity. This causes heat to rise off the land and creates a low pressure system that causes cooler air over the ocean to flow toward the land; this is called a sea breeze. In the evening, the land cools off more rapidly than the ocean, causing the cooling air over the land to fall and moves off land toward the ocean; this is called a land breeze. Hint: Winds are named for the direction from which they blow.
