B. Buenos Aires and Cape Town have different ocean surface temperatures.

The ocean surface temperatures can vary significantly between these two locations due to factors such as their geographic positions, ocean currents, and seasonal changes. Buenos Aires is located in the western Atlantic and is influenced by the warm Brazil Current, while Cape Town, situated along the southwestern coast of Africa, is influenced by the cold Benguela Current. Therefore, it is reasonable to predict that they have different ocean surface temperatures.
