Answer:

Ocean currents are the continuous, predictable, directional movement of seawater driven by gravity, wind (Coriolis Effect), and water density. ... Horizontal movements are referred to as currents, while vertical changes are called upwellings or downwellings.

Ocean currents are the continuous flow of sea water from one direction to another. They can be classified as warm currents and cold currents. Warm currents are the currents that flow from the tropical or subtropical regions towards the polar or sub polar regions. The water that flows in will be warmer than the water at the destination. Similarly cold currents are the currents that flow in from the polar or sub polar regions towards the tropical or subtropical regions. In this case, the water that flow in will be colder than the water at the destination.
