Answer 1

The air over Earth’s surfaces absorbs heat from the materials of Earth. In Section 3 of the experiment, the air over the sand **warms** the air over the water because sand **heats up faster than** water. This difference in temperatures makes the air over the sand **less dense than** the air over the water so it rises. The air above the water takes the place of the air above the sand. This movement of air creates a sea breeze.
