The correct option is this: VARIATIONS ARE GREATER OVER LAND THAN OVER WATER.
Temperature variation over water is very small compared to temperature variation over land. This is because, water has high specific heat capacity, which enables it to resist temperature changes when it absorb heat or when it releases heat. A large amount of heat has to be lost or gained before water will show a one degree Celsius temperature change.
In fetal life, the lungs are not expanded, so most of the blood from the right ventricle is shunted from the pulmonary artery to the aorta through the patent ductus arteriosus. With a few breaths the lungs expand, and blood flows from right ventricle to pulmonary artery into the lungs. Withdrawal of circulating prostaglandin from the mother plus bradykinins released from the expanding lung of the infant cause the ductus to close over a few minutes to hours. The closed ductus remains as the ligamentum arteriosum.
