The correct answer is - d. colder and denser.

The main differences between the surface currents and deeper currents are the temperature and density, and that actually decides their position in the water, on the surface, or deeper.

The surface currents are warmer, and because they are warmer the molecules are much more loose, so the density is lower, which in return makes it easier, thus it is in the surface.

The deeper currents are colder, and because they are colder the molecules are much closer and more concentrated, so the density is higher, which means that they are heavier, thus fall deeper below the easier currents.

How has the geography of Afghanistan made it difficult for invading armies to conquer?
katovenus [111]

Answer:

b. The terrain is mostly desert and mountains

Explanation:

Afghanistan is a country that has proved to be extremely difficult to invade, and that has been the case for thousands of years. There is one major reason for this, the geography of the country. The country is dominated by very high mountains that create rain shadow and and deserts. The mountains themselves are extremely difficult for passing through, and even if they are passed by an invading army, they will take their toll. Once the mountains are passed, an invading army would face desert, very dry climate, very few food sources and very little water, with temperatures varying from scorching hot in the summer, to freezing cold in the winter. So even if an army passes through both of these natural obstacles, when it comes to face the natives it will be too weak to invade.
