Question

Ocean currents are produced by differences in the temperature of the water at different depths.

A.True
B.False

Answer 1

B. False

Ocean currents are primarily produced by differences in the density of water caused by variations in temperature, salinity, and the Earth's rotation. These differences in density cause water to move in a specific direction, creating ocean currents.

Answer 2

bruh

Answer 3

Which of the following explains how the three heat transfers work together to heat the troposphere?

a
The sun heats the ground through conduction. Then, the ground heats the air through radiation. Lastly, convection carries the warm air throughout the troposphere.
b
The sun heats the air through radiation. Then, the warm air is carried throughout the troposphere through convection. Lastly, the air heats the ground through conduction.
c
The sun heats the air through convection. Then, the air heats the ground through radiation. Lastly, the ground spreads the heat throughout the troposphere through conduction.
d
The sun heats the ground through radiation. Then the ground heats the air through conduction. Lastly, convection carries the warm air throughout the troposphere.

Answer 4

d. The sun heats the ground through radiation. Then the ground heats the air through conduction. Lastly, convection carries the warm air throughout the troposphere.

Answer 5

Temperature affects ocean currents cold water is dense and will sink. As the water warms up, it becomes less dense and will rise to the surface.

True
False

Answer 6

True
