Which best explains the relationship between ocean currents and convection currents?(1 point)

Responses

Ocean currents rely on warm convection currents to strength the Coriolis effect.

Convection currents use the Coriolis effect to generate ocean currents.

Convection currents join with the Coriolis effect to create the winds that drive ocean currents.

Ocean currents create a Coriolis effect that increases convection currents.

1 answer

The response that best explains the relationship between ocean currents and convection currents is:

Convection currents join with the Coriolis effect to create the winds that drive ocean currents.

This response accurately reflects how convection currents, which result from temperature and density differences in water and air, interact with the Coriolis effect to influence wind patterns, which in turn drive ocean currents.
