Solution

The correct option is A land absorbs heat faster than the sea
Land breeze can be defined as the breeze that blows from the land toward the sea after sunset.
The land cools more quickly than the ocean, cooling the air above it.
The warmer air above the water continues to rise, and cooler air from over the land replaces it, creating a breeze.
