Solution

The geographic factor most responsible for the summer climate difference between Eureka and Redding is (Choice A) proximity to water. Coastal areas like Eureka tend to have milder temperatures due to the moderating effect of the ocean. The water heats up and cools down more slowly than land, leading to cooler summers and warmer winters. On the other hand, inland areas like Redding are subject to more extreme temperatures as they are far from the moderating influence of the ocean.
