Explanation:
The deep ocean water refers to the water that is present at the bottom of the ocean. This deep water is highly dense, and are rich in essential nutrients including oxygen. Sunlight cannot penetrate into the deeper layer, as a result of which these water remains much colder and moves at a much slower rate in comparison to the surface waves. These deep ocean currents are generated by the density differences due to two factors namely, temperature and salinity.
These currents are moved from the equatorial region to the poles and again comes back from the poles to the equator, forming a circular pattern. This circulation of water is responsible for the various climatic conditions that occur at different places.
Thus, the correct answers are mentioned above.
Answer:
The first Southeast Asian country that was conquered and colonized was the Malacca Sultanate.
Explanation:
Southeast Asia, as multiple other regions in the world, was colonized in most part by the European colonial powers. Pretty much all of this region was colonized, with only Siam (modern-day Thailand) managing to avoid colonization. The European countries that managed to colonize territories in this region were Portugal, Spain, Netherlands, Great Britain, and France.
The first European colony was created by Portugal. In the year 1511, the Portuguese attacked and conquered the Malacca Sultanate, thus making this country the first one to fall under European rule. This sultanate was located on the territories of what are now Malaysia, Singapore, and Indonesia. While this was the first European colony, it was short-lasting, as the Portuguese were not able to cope with the Spanish and Dutch forces which came after them.
