Answer:

The drag from wind holds the responsibility for driving ocean waves in addition to the surface tension.

Explanation:

The ocean currents at the first 100 m of its surface is moved by the wind drag.  Whereas, the ocean currents flowing below the thousand meters of its surface are driven by water's density gradient, which is governed by thermohaline circulation, 'thermo' means temperature and 'haline' means salinity. The centrifugal force has no role to do in driving the ocean current in its surface and earth's rotation causes the Coriolis effect which is an example of hurricane winds.

Why has religion been relevant to humankind for so long?​
denpristay [2]

Answer:

Due to strong believe towards God

Explanation:

Believing that God has a plan helps people regain some sense of control, or at least of acceptance. Another motivational factor is self-enhancement. If you live in a society where religion is prized, it's in your best interest to say you believe, whether you truly do or not. I think God are made by humans to control Violence and inhumanity among Humans but Religion leads peoples to superstation believes which is more dangerous. There is conflicts among people in the name of religion Bc there are so many religions.
