<u>Answer:</u>

<em>Land and sea breeze are produced because the land changes temperature rapidly than the ocean. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

<em>The rates of heating up of land and sea are different. Land gets heated up faster than water. Temperature is crucial in determining the density of air. </em>

When land gets heated up the air near the land turns hot and this temperature is greater than the temperature of the air near the water surface. <em>Hotter air has less density than the air which is relatively less warm. Density difference creates pressure difference. </em>

Denser air has higher pressure than less dense air making air move from area of high pressure to area of low pressure. During the day<em> the land is heated up more and thus air move from sea to land and it is called sea breeze. </em>Just like it absorbs heat land releases heat at a faster rate.  

<em>Thus at night land the sea will be warmer than the sea and thus air will move from the land to the sea and it is called land breeze. </em>

It must belong to the Kingdom Fungi.

Fungi are the organisms that have long thread-like structures called hypha in their body. Many hyphae together form a mass called mycelium. Fungi are eukaryotes and have a well-defined nucleus in their cells. They also have cell walls that are made up of chitin. Fungi are mostly multicellular. However, yeast is the fungi that have a single cell in their body. Fungi are heterotrophs and derive their nutrition by parasitic or saprophytic mode of nutrition. Therefore, the given description tells that the microbe should be a fungus.
