Answer: C. The sun's rays strikes the water at an angle at the poles.

Because the earth rotates at a tilted axis which causes the difference in temperature of water near the equator and water far from equator.  The equator receives direct light from sun the tilted axis prevents the poles from receiving direct sunlight but it receives at an angle.Tilt also causes other effects like extreme length of day and night at polar region.
