How are climates of coastal regions affected by the specific heat capacity of water? a. water temperatures are increasing b. water temperature are decreasing c. wind patterns are observed d. land mass is decreasing

Water has a higher heat capacity than soil and rock, so the ocean takes much longer to heat and to cool than the land. Coastal areas will generally have more moderate temperatures than inland areas because of the heat capacity of the ocean.

D.Land mass is decreasing

i'm assuming that the correct answer is indeed the first one/ "a"..

a  solution  is always transparent, light passes through with no scattering from solute particles which are molecule in size. the  solution  is homogeneous and does not settle out. a colloid is intermediate between asolution  and a  suspension. while asuspension  will separate out a colloid will not.
