I don't have a explanation but the answer is C. I took the test. Good Luck! If C is not Coriolis Effect then don't do C, Do whatever Coriolis Effect says.
Ocean current movement is affected mostly by five things: gravity, salinity, temperature, wind(Coriolis effect), and natural events such as earthquakes. However, the factor which makes it move in a curved pattern is the Coriolis Effect (phenomenon brought by the rotation of the Earth).
Wind(Coriolis Effect) - Due to the Earth's rotation, wind moves towards the right in the Northern Hemisphere and towards the left in the Southern Hemisphere. These global winds dragging on the surface of the water drive the movement of the ocean currents.
Eight major islands and island groups comprise the 100 miles of coast between the Savannah and St. Marys rivers. These are Cumberland/Little Cumberland, Jekyll, St. Simons/Sea Island/Little St.
