Answer:

The Coriolis effect causes surface ocean to be deflected.

Explanation:

The Coriolis effect causes ocean currents to be deflected.

Choriolis effect (named after its discoverer Gaspard Coriolis), is the tendency that any body in motion on the Earth's surface has to change its course due to the rotational direction and the speed of the Earth.

In the northern hemisphere, the attraction is clockwise (to the right) and in the southern hemisphere, the attraction is in the reverse (counterclockwise).

This effect also affects sea currents as the water (liquid) undergoes deformations.

Ok, so, to break it down for y'all:

A force, called The Coriolis Effect, causes the direction of winds and ocean currents to be

deflected!

In the Northern Hemisphere, wind and currents are deflected toward the right, while the Southern Hemisphere is deflected toward the left.

Glad I could help, byee XP

dolphi86 [110]

When compared to the positive control, a disinfectant dilution is considered to be useful if it stops bacterial growth.

Choosing a disinfectant:

When selecting a disinfectant, keep the following things in mind:

  • The range of bacteria that need to be eliminated. Look into the specifications of the manufacturers.
  • The conditions of usage of disinfectant.

Application of disinfectants :

  • Activity: it is necessary for efficient disinfection since, once diluted, it degrades over time. Different disinfectants deteriorate at different rates. Obtain data from the manufacturers. Disinfectants that don't have a color indication, like Virkon, should be marked with an expiration date.
  • Touch time: it has to be verified that the manufacturer's data to make sure the organism stays in contact for the specified amount of time. Considering that solid materials like cells and tissue granules are difficult for disinfectants to penetrate, autoclaving would be a more effective way to inactivate.

Therefore the correct choice is an option (A).
