Solution

The correct option is B Valley
Air moves from regions of high pressure in the valley towards the region of low pressure near the mountain peak. Therefore, during the day-time, we have breeze or winds blowing from valleys towards mountain peaks, and these winds or breeze are called the valley breeze.
