The three correct statements are:

- Energy is absorbed more than radiated near the equator.
- Energy is carried from the equator to poles in surface currents.
- Energy is radiated more than absorbed near the poles.

(Equatorial regions receive more solar energy than they lose, and warm surface currents transport that heat poleward; polar regions lose more heat than they receive.)
