Answer 1

Answer:

By moving warm water and precipitation from the Equator toward the poles.

I know you want the right answer on study island like me. I just guessed and happened to get the right answer, so yeah. You're welcome.

Answer 2

Oceans currents are significant in thermal regulation. The ocean waters at the equator are warmer than those at the poles. This is due to the fact that the tropics receive direct sunlight throughout the year than the poles. The less dense warm currents move towards the poles on the surface waters while the cold denser waters from the poles move towards the equator on the ocean floor. This is expedited by the Coriolis effect of the earth’s rotation. These ocean currents transfer heat and distribute it hence regulating the globe’s climate.
