During a summer day on the beach, the sand on the beach and the air temperature feel hot, but the ocean water feels cold. At night, why would the ocean water be warmer than the air? A. The heat from the air transfers to the water during the night, making the water warmer than it was during the day.
B. Air stays warmer longer than water so your body is warm when you jump into the water.
C. Air changes temperature faster than water, so the water is warmer and the air is much cooler than it was during the day.
D. As a cool breeze blows off the water onto the land, the water warms up.
