Answer: Volcanoes

Explanation:

The Earth's tectonic plates are always moving and as a result come into contact with each other at their boundaries.

These boundaries are where the majority of volcanoes are formed because of the movement of the plates allowing for magma to flow upwards from the mantle.

Divergent plate boundaries see plates moving away from each other and this gives magma an opportunity to rise from the mantle. Convergent plate boundaries have plates hitting each other which causes magma to rise when one plate sinks into the mantle.

As the magma rises, volcanoes are formed when the magma cools.

Anon25 [30]
The correct answer is A) the direction of ocean currents.
Ocean currents ,with their movement, contribute to the movement of the lower air masses. The lower air masses are practically like a shadow of the ocean currents and follow it's movement, thus winds are created by the ocean currents. Also it is important to notice, that the winds can be warm and cold, dry and wet, this all depends on the temperature of the ocean currents, as well as where are they moving in the ocean waters.
