Correct answers: 3 and 4.
Explanation: A land breeze occurs at night, when land cools faster than water. The air above the cooler land becomes denser/higher pressure and flows toward the warmer, lower-pressure air over the water (offshore). This mechanism—air movement caused by temperature and pressure differences between land and water—is the same basic process as a sea breeze (but with the direction reversed).
