Solution
The correct option is B Statement 1 is correct but statement 2 is incorrect Because land heats up faster than the sea, the air above it warms up and rises during the day. The air at the sea is cooler and begins to flow towards the land. It's referred to as a sea breeze.
Hence, statement 1 is correct and statement 2 is incorrect.
