Deep water currents in the ocean are caused by:
divergent
the wind
volcanoes erupting and spewing chemicals into the sea and rivers washing minerals from rocks into the oceans
gravitational pull of the moon
sodium chloride
nitrogen gas
differences in temperature and density
convection currents in the atmosphere
Within our atmosphere, heat is mostly transferred when warm air or water rises and cool air or water sinks. This is an example of what?
divergent
the wind
volcanoes erupting and spewing chemicals into the sea and rivers washing minerals from rocks into the oceans
gravitational pull of the moon
sodium chloride
nitrogen gas
differences in temperature and density
convection currents in the atmosphere
The mid-ocean ridge is formed during seafloor spreading when two tectonic plates move apart. What kind of boundary is this?
divergent
the wind
volcanoes erupting and spewing chemicals into the sea and rivers washing minerals from rocks into the oceans
gravitational pull of the moon
sodium chloride
nitrogen gas
differences in temperature and density
convection currents in the atmosphere
What causes the daily rise and fall of sea level known as the tide?
divergent
the wind
volcanoes erupting and spewing chemicals into the sea and rivers washing minerals from rocks into the oceans
gravitational pull of the moon
sodium chloride
