Question 1
Under which wind system does the direction of winds change daily?
Correct Answer Explanation
Land and sea breezes change direction daily due to differential heating and cooling of land and water. During the day, land heats faster than sea, so cool air blows from sea to land (sea breeze). At night, land cools faster, so air blows from land to sea (land breeze). Trade winds are steady and persistent; monsoon winds change seasonally (not daily).
