Answer:

The correct options are: A. Earth's rotation, B. Global winds, C. Water temperature

Step-by-step explanation:

Ocean currents refers to the continuous horizontal and vertical movement of large masses of ocean water. The two types of ocean currents are: the deep ocean currents and the surface ocean currents.

The factors that affect movement of the ocean currents include the rotation of Earth, variations in water temperature, pressure gradient, and wind.

Therefore, weather reports is not one of the factors affecting the ocean currents.
