The answer is Friction!

Alexandra [31]3 years ago

Answer:

The correct answer is option D, that is, friction.

Explanation:

In the surface of the ocean, the water gets affected by the winds, which blows in the specific patterns due to the spinning of the Earth at distinct angles. The wind currents possess the tendency enough to affect the motion of the surface layer of the water and the water tides. Thus, it can be said that the friction between the ocean and the wind on its surface results in surface currents.

I believe it would be polyphyletic.
Polyphyletic groups are formed when two lineages convergently evolve similar character states. Organisms classified into the same polyphyletic group share phenetic homoplasies as opposed to homologies. The key difference between paraphyletic and polyphyletic groups is that paraphyletic contain their common ancestor, whereas polyphyletic groups do not.

What is the difference between a primary group and a secondary gsandy?
liq [111]
People in a secondary group interact on a less personal level than in a g. Since secondary groups are established to perform functions, people’s roles are more interchangeable. A secondary group is one you have chosen to be a part of. They are based e where many people can meet close friends or people they would just call acquaintances. Secondary groups are groups in which one exchanges explicit commodities, such as labour for wages, services for payments, etc. Examples of these would be employment, vendor-to-client relationships, etc.The distinction between Primary and Secondary groups serves to identify between two orders of social organization through analysis of the group relationships and their nature.
