True or False, The heat from the sun causes Earth's currents?

1 answer

True. The heat from the sun plays a crucial role in driving Earth's currents, both in the atmosphere (atmospheric currents) and in the oceans (ocean currents). Solar energy heats different parts of the Earth unevenly, leading to variations in temperature and pressure that result in wind patterns and ocean currents. This process is fundamental to the climate and weather systems on Earth.
