Although Air Temperatures at a Site on the Coast of California

Although air temperatures at a site on the coast of California can swing widely in very short periods of time, marine animals in the ocean at this site do not experience the same wide temperature swings.Which statement explains this observation?

A) Hydrogen bonding between water molecules results in the formation of a rigid lattice-like structure in the solid state.
B) The density of water changes with temperature as the average distance between water molecules changes.
C) A great deal of energy absorbed by water goes into breaking hydrogen bonds between water molecules.
D) Water molecules at the surface are hydrogen-bonded to other water molecules below them.
E) The polar nature of water molecules makes it an excellent solvent for dissolving polar substances.
