C. Wind

Surface ocean currents are caused by the different patterns of the wind. Because of the earth’s rotation, wind doesn’t simply circulate in a back and forth motion but it moves in varying directions in the Northern and Southern hemispheres. These deflected wind movements result in a curved pathway. This is called the Coriolis Effect.

<span>Surface ocean current form gyres or large circular patterns. Because of the Coriolis Effect, gyres flow differently depending on which hemisphere they are on. Those who are on the Northern hemisphere move clockwise, while those in the Southern hemisphere circulate counter clockwise.

What was a result of the trial and execution of Ethel and Julius Rosenberg for espionage in 1953? Group of answer choices fear o
OLEGan [10]

The correct answer is A) fear of communism and the USSR was increased.

A result of the trial and execution of Ethel and Julius Rosenberg for espionage in 1953 was that fear of communism and the USSR was increased.

During the Cold War years, the United States and the Soviet Union competed in almost everything, including in the arms race and the space race. During this period, the world lived tense moments and even, the world was on the brink of another war due to the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962.

In the case of Ethel and Julius Rosenberg, they were executed because the government proved that they had given top-secret information to the Soviet Union, regarding nuclear bombs. They were accused of being spies and of conspiring against the United States. These events and all the scenario of the Cold War and the Red Scare accusations of the US having Communists infiltrated in the federal government and in the military, only increased the fear of communism and the USSR.
