Mediterranean
Correct Answer:
B. Equatorial
Explanation:
The region described in the passage is the Equatorial region.
The description of mornings being clear and bright with a sea breeze, followed by heat build-up, dark clouds forming, and then rain with thunder and lightning that is soon over, matches the daily weather pattern typical of equatorial climates.

Such daily weather patterns are characteristic of tropical rainforests near the equator.
Therefore, the correct answer is (b) Equatorial.
