A sea breeze describes the wind that blows from the ocean inland towards land. This breeze occurs most often in the spring and summer months because of the greater temperature differences between the ocean and nearby land, particularly in the afternoon when the land is at maximum heating from the sun. 
During the day, the sun heats up both the ocean surface and the land. Water is a good absorber of the energy from the sun. The land absorbs much of the sun’s energy as well.  However, water heats up much more slowly than land and so the air above the land will be warmer compared to the air over the ocean. The warm air over the land will rise throughout the day, causing low pressure at the surface. Over the water, the high surface pressure will form because of the colder air. To compensate, the air will sink over the ocean. The wind will blow from the higher pressure over the water to lower pressure over the land causing the sea breeze. The sea breeze strength will vary depending on the temperature difference between the land and the ocean.
At night, the roles reverse. The air over the ocean is now warmer than the air over the land. The land loses heat quickly after the sun goes down and the air above it cools too.  This can be compared to a blacktop road. During the day, the blacktop road heats up and becomes very hot to walk on. At night, however, the blacktop has given up the added heat and is cool to the touch. The ocean, however, is able to hold onto this heat after the sun sets and not lose it as easily. This causes the low surface pressure to shift to over the ocean during the night and the high surface pressure to move over the land. This causes a small temperature gradient between the ocean surface and the nearby land at night and the wind will blow from the land to the ocean creating the land breeze.

 <span>I would suspect the pressure would be slightly higher at night and slightly lower during the day. You can research "diurnal pressure change" for more information.

Can someone tell me why cell specialization is important for life on earth. Please Give some examples of why it is important as
insens350 [35]

Answer:

It is important because if not then life would not exist at all except maybe in single cells forms

Explanation:

The body is made of so many cells and without cell specialzation, the cells would not know what to do, they would all be the same. The liver is so different from the skin from the eyes, from the tongue, and so on. That is why we need it so our body can do what it is supposed to do.

Thatś only really one example but I hope it helps!

What would happen if the bases in DNA strands were connected by a bond other than a hydrogen bond?
tekilochka [14]
The correct answer is It would be more difficult for DNA to unzip since it would require more energy to break the bonds.

That is because it would most probably be a covalent bond and such a bond is stronger than a hydrogen bond which means that more energy would be needed to break it.
