Option 4 : Neither A nor B

The correct answer is neither A nor B.

Surface water temperatures in the Pacific can vary from −1.4°C in the freezing point of seawater, in the poleward areas to about 30°C near the equator.
This is lower than both the Atlantic and the Indian Ocean. Hence statement A is not true.
The Sun hits the surface layer of the ocean, heating the water up.
Wind and waves mix this layer up from top to bottom, so the heat gets mixed downward too.
The temperature of the surface waters varies mainly with latitude.
