Answer:
Coriolis force is responsible for the deflection of winds from its normal path.
And therefore, Coriolis Force is the correct answer.
Explanation:
What is Coriolis force?
All the moving bodies on the earth surface that is, ocean currents and winds are deflected towards the right in the Northern hemisphere and towards left in the southern hemisphere due to Coriolis force created because of the rotation of the Earth. This is called Ferrel's law.
