Solution

The correct option is D night
Land breeze is a natural phenomenon based on convection of heat, in which cool air flows from the land toward the sea. It is caused due to the uneven heating of the land and the sea by the sunlight.
During the night, the land cools down quicker than the sea, so, the sea is warmer than the land. This causes the cool air from the land to flow toward the sea.
