Question

write about the factors causing ocean currents class 7​

Answer 1

Answer:

Ocean currents can be caused by wind, density differences in water masses caused by temperature and salinity variations, gravity, and events such as earthquakes or storms. ... These currents move water masses through the deep ocean—taking nutrients, oxygen, and heat with them.

Answer 2

Answer:

1. Wind is the biggest factor in the creation of surface currents

2. Another major factor in the creation of currents is water density, caused by the amount of salt in a body of water, and it's temperature

3. Water contours to the topography of the ocean floor or bed

4. Coriolis effect : when a rotating object collides with another moving or stationary force, it creates a new motion
