Reason(R): Sea breezes occur due to convection currents.

• A. Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).​​
• B.
  (A) is true but (R) is false. ​
• C.
  (A) is false but (R) is true.
• D. Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).

Answer 1

The correct option is A Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).​​

During daytime, land gets heated faster than water. So during the day, the air above the land heats and rises up. The cooler and heavier air from the sea rushes towards land and fills up the void. This breeze from the sea is known as the sea breeze.Convection causes land and sea breezes to occur. Convection is the heat transfer due to the movement of molecules within fluids such as gases and liquids.
