If wind blows from sea to land, how can it affect climate?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It can increase moisture and the possibility of rainfall

Correct answer: B. Air moving from the sea often carries water vapour, so it can raise humidity over land and increase the possibility of clouds and rainfall, especially when the air is lifted or other conditions support condensation. The word “can” is important: sea-to-land wind does not guarantee rain everywhere, because rainfall also depends on temperature, uplift, pressure, relief, and condensation. A is wrong because air from the sea is generally a source of moisture, not always dryness. C is wrong because wind cannot change a place’s latitude; latitude is its angular position north or south of the Equator. D is wrong because wind does not lower the physical altitude of land. Cue: sea-to-land wind may transport moisture; moisture plus uplift can produce rain.
