How does thermohaline circulation repeat itself in a cycle

Social Studies
2 answers:
maxonik [38]3 years ago

Answer:

The new water gets cold and sinks

Explanation:

In the ocean as a whole, salt water is on the surface - because it is hotter than water with less salt. These two regions do not mix except in some special cases, as happens in the thermoaline circulation.

The part containing the highest salt concentration is denser than the part containing the least salt. Thus, when a part of the ocean that contains higher salinity comes in contact with a part with lower salinity, a current forms. The region of higher density (with higher salt concentration) is swallowed and submerged by the region of lower density (with lower salt concentration). This submersion creates a very large and slow current called thermoaline circulation.

Thus we can say that thermohaline circulation repeats in a cycle because the new water cools and sinks.

According to windows2universe.org:

"Surface ocean currents are primarily driven by winds. Deep ocean currents, on the other hand, are mainly a result of density differences. The thermohaline circulation<span>, often referred to as the ocean's "conveyor belt", links major surface and deep water currents in the Atlantic, Indian, Pacific, and Southern Oceans." </span>

Why did aristotle feel that humans should not put much faith in natural philosophy?
dusya [7]
Aristotle feels that way because he believed that M<span>ost of the creation could not be studied and therefore lay beyond human understanding.
He believed that some things are meant to be unknown by the limit of our intellectual capabilities and we should only focus on things that we could control with our current capabilities.</span>

miv72 [106K]

Answer:

A. Life without parole.

Explanation:

Texas is one of the 31 states who offer life without parole as an option for some offenders. It basically means that they have to stay in prison for the rest of their life, without a chance to get on a parole.This resulted in less sentences to the death penalty, by lethal injection. This is most commonly used for hard cases of murder, or sexual abuses. Some justify this decision with the argument that the offender has no potential for rehabilitation and to successfully once again become a functioning part of a society.
