The sea can act as a temperature regulator because it takes in heat energy in the summer but the land can’t do that (the suns rays are mostly reflected) so temperature isn’t kept as constant

Answer:

The reason for such difference is the presence of large bodies of water.

Explanation:

Large bodies of water could be a large lake, sea or ocean.

The presence of large bodies of water can affect the climate of an environment.

One of the regions where the greatest swings of temperature occur are areas that whose proximity from water is far.

The difference in temperature of Rita's and her friend's residents is due to the fact that water heats and cools more slowly than landmasses, so Rita's friend will experience cool temperatures

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

In the above-given question,

Option (B) is wrong with it's usage of the modifier "how'' in the sentence. If the modifier is used in one place (how heat from the inner core flows), it should also be used in the continuing clause (how the formation and periodic reversal).

Options (C) and (D) are wrong in using the word "are" for the whole sentence as there is no need to use this word. The verb form will depend on the subject, in this case, is "the discovery that earth's inner core" which is singular in nature. Thus, the verb form will be -is and not -are.

Option (E) is wrong for it's use of the comma. If the comma is used, then the whole sentence is not a full-fledged sentence but rather a dependent clause with no resolution.

The correct answer for the given passage is option (A).
