Answer:

Option (A)

Explanation:

The Coriolis force usually refers to that force which generates due to the rotation of the earth. This force directly affects the path of the moving wind and ocean water from the equatorial region to the polar region. This force has the maximum effect in both the poles and has no effect in the equatorial region.

It forces the large scale movement of water and wind, to travel in a clockwise and anticlockwise pattern in the northern and southern hemispheres respectively.  

Thus, this force results from the rotation of the earth.

Hence, the correct answer is option (A).

Briefly compare and contrast the two disciplines, geography and geology
jarptica [38.1K]

The main difference between geography and geology is that geography is mostly dealing with the physical overall shapes of the land. Geology is a science that is interested in how the land got into the shape it did.

Geology is mostly about what the ground is made up of from a natural perspective. What kind of rocks it contains and how those rocks or layers of rocks got there.

Geography is mostly dealing with mapping the extent of landforms, how far rivers are, how long mountain ranges are, how long the coast line is. This is often from the perspective of people or culture.
