OpenStudy (whpalmer4):

surface currents tend to be caused by wind. convection causes deeper currents.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So which one is it?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is it D. then because of what you are telling me it sounds like the answer is D.

OpenStudy (dumbsearch2):

\(\sf\Large\color{green}{The~answer} \) The circulation of cold and warm water between the poles and the equator, and the rotation of the earth, cause ocean currents to flow. Peace \(\sf\Large\color{red}{♥} \)
