Answer:- The given statement is False.

The Coriolis force deflects the winds to the left in the Northern hemisphere and to the right in the Southern hemisphere - False.

The right answer is that the Coriolis force deflects the wind to the right in the Northern hemisphere and to the left in the Southern hemisphere.

Due to the Earth's rotation, the circulating air is deflected. Instead of circulating in the straight pattern, the air deflects toward the right in the Northern Hemisphere and toward the left in the Southern Hemisphere, resulting in the curved paths. This is the deflection which is called as the Coriolis effect.

To move the air in the Northern Hemisphere and in the Southern Hemisphere, as the air moves from higher to the lower pressure in the northern hemisphere, it is deflected to the right by the Coriolis force. In the southern hemisphere, the air moving from the higher to the lower pressure is deflected to the left by the Coriolis force.
