Why does ocean temperature change little from day to night? marine ice caps keep ocean water from heating up t0o much. lesser cloudiness over the oceans allows them to soak up more solar energy than land. a. b. salts in ocean water absorb sunlight during the day and release it at night. d. high heat capacity allows water to gain and release heat without much change in temperature

D

Explanation:

Water has a high heat capacity. This means it takes much energy (compared to other elements and compounds) to raise the temperatures of water by a degree. This, therefore, means that during the day, the land becomes hotter faster than the oceans. (The reason for sea breeze during the day). Likewise, during the night it takes much time for the water to lose the heat and drop its temperatures (compared to land – the reason for land breezes at night)

a. i. only is correct.

the answer will be b
