a current made of which water would be a surface current? A. cold water with low salt content B. cold water with high salt content C. warm water with high salt content D. warm water with low salt content b?

That's incorrect. The water is dense and with density comes cold water. Surface ocean currents carry heat from place to place in the Earth system. This affects regional climates. The Sun warms water at the equator more than it does at the high latitude polar regions. The heat travels in surface currents to higher latitudes. A current that brings warmth into a high latitude region will make that region’s climate less chilly. http://www.windows2universe.org/earth/Water/ocean_currents.html
