<u>Answer:</u>

They generally blow from "West to East".  

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • The direction of a surface ocean current is largely governed by the direction of winds flowing over the ocean in that particular region.
  • The "impact of the Coriolis effect" in the Atlantic ocean tends the winds to flow in a particular direction or to a particular side.
  • The "winds deflect" to the right in the "northern hemisphere", whereas, they deflect to the left in the "southern hemisphere".

bulgar [2K]

Your answer would be Tectonic.

Tectonic plates move in various directions, and move slowly. Due to the movement of tectonic plates the earth cracks, and shakes which is called an earch quake. Tectonic plates move constently everyday, and you can't feel it because it's slow. Wehn tectonic plates move quickly, the earth starts to shake. The most common places that have tectonic plates have a higher chance of having an earthquake, even a tusnami.
