What drives global thermohaline (conveyor belt) circulation?
Sergeu [11.5K]
Hi the answer to your question would be, Theremohaline circulation is mostly driven by global density gradients created by surface heat. So, deep ocean currents are caused by the water's density, which is controlled by the temperature (greek word thermo) and salinity (haline). This is thermohaline circulation described. Now once the sea water gets more saltier and then ice forms some salt is left behind and then density increases & starts to sink. Now surface water comes in to replace the sinking water & the temperature drops and then it becomes cold & salty enough to sink. This initiates the deep ocean currents which drives the global conveyor belt. Let me know if you need me to explain more. Hope this helped :)

what is the significance of diffusion and osmosis in living organism ?give one example in support of your answer​
olasank [31]

Answer:

Diffusion is the process in which molecules and ions move from a region of high concentration to low concentration. Its also how cells transport waste out of the cell and nutrients into it hence being very crucial. Diffusion also occurs without the expenditure of extra energy using a procedure known as passive transport. (Osmosis is a form of diffusion but deals with water exclusively).

Examples of where diffusion is important;

In the intestines - Digested food molecules such as amino acids and glucose move down the concentration gradient from the intestine into the bloodstream. Wastes such as carbon dioxide or urea travel via diffusion from the body's cells to the bloodstream.

Osmosis plays a major role in living organisms. It aids in the transportation of nutrients from cells to cells and also helps to remove the waste's metabolic products from the cell. The purification of blood in the kidneys is also dependent on the process of osmosis.
