Which of these statements best explains why a nightly breeze blows toward the ocean in coastal locations? (4 points) Cool air above the ocean rises, making room for warmer air from the land. Warm air above the land rises and displaces the cooler air above the ocean. Cool air above the land rises and displaces the cooler air above the ocean. Warm air above the ocean rises, making room for cooler air from the land.

Warm air above the ocean rises, making room for cooler air from the land.

Explanation:

The nightly breeze that blows toward the ocean in coastal location is caused by the movement of cool air from the land to displace ward air above the ocean.

The phenomenon is referred to as land breeze, a opposite of sea breeze.

Due to the difference in heating ability of land and water (water heats up more slowly but retains heat longer), the land heats up quicker than water during the day and this create a blanket of low pressure, warm and less dense air above it. The higher pressure, cold and denser air from the ocean then moves to replace the space created over the land. This phenomenon is known as sea breeze.

The reverse occur during the night. Low pressure, warm, less dense air above the ocean gets replaced by high pressure, cold, denser air from land in what is known as land breeze.
