The primary factor that creates global winds is a) Differences in heating. These differences in heating occur due to the uneven warming of the Earth's surface by the sun, which causes variations in air temperature and pressure. As warm air rises, cooler air moves in to take its place, creating wind patterns. Additionally, the Coriolis effect, caused by the Earth's rotation, influences the direction of these winds.
