A
True
B
False
C
Either A or B
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -As such, sand gets heated or cooled more rapidly as compared to water under the similar conditions. Thus a large difference in temperature is developed between the land and the sea due to which land and sea breezes are formed. These breezes make the climate near the sea shore moderate.

Detailed explanation-2: -2. The statement is false. Explanation: Coastal areas experience moderate climate because of the presence of water bodies, but the interior parts of the country experience extreme climatic conditions.

Detailed explanation-3: -Note: The sun heats up the land and the sea at the coastal areas. Sea water has higher heat capacity than land. Hence, it takes longer to heat up than the land. The air on the land heats up quickly and rises, and the cool air from above the sea water rushes to take its place.
