What drives deep ocean currents?

Biology
1 answer:
OLEGan [10]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

B) difference in water density

Explanation:

The deep ocean currents are the cold ocean currents. They appear in the Arctic and Antarctic circles. As the warm ocean currents come from the low latitudes toward the high latitudes, they bring in warmer water on the surface. They start to cool off though as the near the high latitudes, so gradually they become cold ocean currents. As they become cold, the water is sinking below the less dense warmer water that is coming from behind, making a turn in the opposite direction and moving as deep ocean current toward the low latitudes. Once it reaches the low latitudes, this water will get warmer, and it will move toward the high latitudes, and the process constantly continues.

Answer:

All living things are made of cells

Cells form from previously existing cells

Explanation:

According to the Cell Theory, all forms of life are composed of one or more cells, whereby cells are the fundamental building blocks in all living organisms. All cells are composed of inorganic molecules (e.g., water) and carbon-based organic molecules (e.g., carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids, etc). All the new cells arise from the division of pre-existing cells. Louis Pasteur showed cells would only grow in broth if they are exposed to air (oxygen), thus refuting the idea of spontaneous generation. In multicellular eukaryotic organisms, these cells can be organized in tissues, organs and organ systems.
