The temperature of inland regions tends to vary more widely than the temperature of coastal regions. This is because

A) there is more wind in inland regions.
B) there are fewer storms near the ocean.
C) the ocean holds more heat energy than land does.
D) paved areas inland cause the temperature to fluctuate.

C

Explanation:

As oceans have a higher heat capacity than soil and rocks.By this I mean they hold a larger amount of energy before the temperature changes. And hence inland regions have much more fluctuation in terms of temperatures compared to coastal areas which generally maintain the same temperatures.

Hope this helps.
