The ocean absorbs heat energy from the sun.
The ocean can store a large amount of solar energy.
This heat absorbed by the ocean can be transmitted to the earth through the flow of ocean currents.
When the land is cold the warm ocean currents move along the coast and heats up air that moves to the earth's surface and hence heat the earth.
Since 75% of the earth is covered with water then oceans play a major role in heating the land.
The correct answer is therefore A.
It absorbs and transmits solar energy to the earth.
