Answer: Map H

Step-by-step explanation:

Sea breeze cycle clouds form in an area where land and a body of water such as an ocean or sea come into contact with each other so maps G and J are not possible as these formed over land and away from any coastlines.

These clouds form over land as it is on land that the sea breeze would be warmed by the land temperature and then rise up. Map F is therefore incorrect as those clouds are over the sea.

Map H is the most plausible answer as the clouds are right over land and the area is next to the ocean.
