Question

Convection refers to the movement of heat through a fluid, such as water. Which best describes one way that convection

Answer 1

Answer: C) Warm water at the surface flows toward the poles and sinks as it cools.

Explanation: One of the factors that influence the circulation of ocean water is solar radiation. Most of this radiation is absorbed by the waters in the Equator. Then, said warm water flows towards the poles. While at the same time, cold water comes from the poles and flows towards the Equator. When the two temperatures crash, the cold water absorbs the heat from the warm water. Finally, as the warm water is cooling, it starts to sink, and the cold water starts to rise.

Answer 2

Answer:

Warm water at the surface flows toward the poles and sinks as it cools.

Explanation:

The transfer or movement of heat energy in the atmosphere, hydrosphere, etc takes place due to radiation, convection, and conduction. Convection inc conjunction with the ocean currents move warm water toward the poles and colder water toward the equator which sinks as it cools.
