Solution

The correct option is C Sea breeze
Breeze that blows from the sea toward the land during the day time is called sea breeze.
During day time, land gets warmer quickly when compared to the sea. This results in increase of temperature of air above the land, causing it to rise. The air from the sea rushes to occupy the space created above the land causing sea breeze.
