Answer:

The correct answer is option a. very slowly beneath the ocean.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi!

Let's solve this!

Ocean currents are generated by external effects such as gravitational force, wind, among others.

Deep ocean currents go slowly, and are generated by the difference in density between surface and bottom water.

The correct answer is option a. very slowly beneath the ocean.
