The correct answer is wind. Wind causes upwelling by blowing along the surface of the ocean, which creates a surface current that drives water away from the coast. This allows water from deeper in the ocean to rise up and take its place, which brings nutrients closer to the surface and supports the growth of phytoplankton and other marine organisms.
