In summer, why is the air around a large body of water cooler than nearby inland areas?
A) Water temperature changes slowly in response to solar irradiation when compared to the rate of temperature change of land surfaces.
B) Water temperature isn't affected by solar irradiation, whereas the temperature of land surfaces is affected.
C) It's not actually cooler; the breezes associated with the water only make it seem cooler.
D) Air molecules are farther away from each other over water, so they do not generate as much heat.
