The correct answer fro above statement is:

a. wind

Step-by-step explanation:

Ocean waves are generated by wind passing opposite the surface of the water. The conflict within the air particles and the water particles causes energy to be given from the wind to the water. This makes waves to form. A wave is determined as a shift of energy.
