Answer :

In the given activity, you are asked to match descriptions to either land breeze or sea breeze. Let's break down the characteristics of each to help you correctly match them: Land Breeze: 1. Occurs at night when the land cools down faster than the sea. 2. Cool air sinks over the land creating high pressure. 3. Warm air over the sea expands and rises, creating a low-pressure area. 4. The wind blows from the land towards the sea. 5. Offshore wind. 6. Does not significantly influence temperature changes. Sea Breeze: 1. Occurs during the day when the land heats up faster than the sea. 2. Warm air over the land expands and rises, creating low pressure. 3. Cool air sinks along the sea, creating high pressure. 4. The wind blows from the sea towards the land. 5. Onshore wind. 6. Most significantly affects lower air temperatures. By understanding these key differences, you can correctly match the descriptions provided in the activity to either land breeze or sea breeze based on the characteristics associated with each type.
