Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Which region will have warmer winter and cooler summer?
A
continental region
B
coastal region
C
Mountainous region
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -As a result, areas along the coast, or near large bodies of water, will retain that warmth thanks to the sea breeze effect. When air blows over land from the water, it warms those nearby areas, before the air then cools as it travels further inland.

Detailed explanation-2: -Water heats and cools more slowly than landmasses. Therefore, the coastal regions will stay cooler in summer and warmer in winter, thus creating a more moderate climate with a narrower temperature range.

Detailed explanation-3: -Therefore, coastal climates are much more temperate because a body of water is nearby to regulate the temperature and keep it more constant. This means that coastal locations tend to be cooler in summer and warmer in winter than places inland at the same latitude and altitude.
