Question

One of the factors including the climate of any place is _____.
A. Human beings
B. Ocean currents
C. Moon
D. None of these

Answer 1

Hint: The factor is related to the movement of water in the water bodies. The movement of water takes place by different effects or forces such as cabbeling, breaking of waves, Coriolis effect, and wind.

Complete Step by step answer –
A large distance is covered by ocean currents. The global conveyor belt is the result of the movement of the water. The climate of the different regions of the earth is also determined by the global conveyor belt. The regions of warm climate are Gulf streams and Northwest Europe. The example of the cooler region includes Lima and Peru. There are two types of ocean currents namely surface and deep water current and flow of ocean water across the planets. The unit in which ocean currents are measured is Sverdrup ( sv). 1 sv is equal to the volume glow of a 1, 000,000-meter cube. The ocean conveyor belt is also called thermohaline circulation. Here thermo means temperature and haline means salt content. Both of these factors determine the density of seawater. It is also responsible for providing heat to the polar regions of the planet earth.
Additional Information – Some of the important ocean currents includes Baffin Island current, East Greenland current, Labrador current, Norwegian current, Angola current, Canary current, loop current, Lomonosov current, Indian monsoon current, Leeuwin current, California current, Davidson current, and Equatorial counter current.

The correct answer is option B.

Note – All these ocean currents are divided by different oceans such as the pacific ocean, Indian ocean, Atlantic ocean, Arctic ocean, and Southern ocean. Some of the oceanic gyres include Indian ocean gyre, Ross gyre, and South Pacific gyre.
