Because the wind is coming from the ocean it holds a lot more humidity. Meaning, the winds content includes about 80% humidity.

Answer: Cool, high moisture containing and elevated humidity levels

Explanation: Body of air or simply air masses specifically land and sea breezes are caused by the differences in temperature over land and water leading to the creation of high and low pressure points. Prevailing winds moving from oceans across land is called sea breeze which occurs during the day when the land has a higher temperature than surface waters such as the ocean. This results in a lower pressure over land and a higher one over the ocean. The pressure gradient is often strong enough for a wind to blow from the water to the land carrying winds characterized

by high moisture contents and high relative humidities over it.

The survival of the species is ensured by C. by protecting the fertilized eggs from predators. The protection provided by the male increases the hatch rate of the eggs, which means more young seahorses. The greater the number of hatchlings, the greater the likelihood that some will survive to adulthood and carry on the survival of the species.

Answer:

Water is slower to heat than most materials.

Explanation:

There is a physical property called "specific heat". This property determines the amount of temperature necessary to change 1ºC in the temperature of the materials. The higher the specific heat of the material, the slower it will heat up.

The water has an extremely high specific heat, which means that it will slowly heat up to an extremely high temperature. The specific heat of the water is greater than most materials and this explains why high variations and external temperature changes almost do not cause changes in the water of the picisnas, for example.
