Question

Assertion (A): Coastal places experience moderate temperatures.

Reason (R): Coastal places experience land and sea breezes.

Options

• Both A and R are true, and R is the correct reason for A.

• Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct reason for A.

• A is true, and R is false.

• A is false, and R is true.

Answer 1

Both A and R are true, and R is the correct reason for A.

Explanation:

Coastal places have moderate temperatures because land and sea breezes occur. During the day, cooler air from the sea blows inland (sea breeze), and at night, cooler air from the land blows out to the sea (land breeze). This exchange keeps coastal temperatures stable and prevents extreme heat or cold.
