Sea breezes that occur near the shore are attributed to a difference between land and water with respect to what property?

a. mass density

b. coefficient of volume expansion

c. specific heat

d. emissivity

a. mass density

Explanation:

Land and sea breeze that occur near the shore are due to the variation of mass density of air with change in temperature.

When the air gets heated it becomes rarer in density and thus rises up in the atmosphere and its space is occupied by a cooler and denser air that flows to the place.

During the day the land is warmer than the sea so the sea breeze blows and during the night the water bodies are warmer than the land so the land breeze blows.
