The match up of the facts and frictions are:
Convection Current FACTS:
- Convection currents can be caused by the land as it heats up during the day.
- The Sun's energy directly impacts ocean and wind currents.
- Wind plays a major impact on currents at the ocean's surface.
- Wind currents move from low to high pressure.
Convection Current FICTION:
- The Moon's gravitational pull directly impacts ocean and wind currents.
- Earth's rotation is the only thing that impacts wind.
- Ocean currents always flow south to north.
- A sea breeze is when the cooler air over the land moves in toward the ocean.
Convection currents can be caused by the land as it heats up during the day. During the day, the sun heats the land more quickly than the ocean.
So, This causes the air over the land to become warmer and less dense, causing it to rise. The cooler air over the ocean then flows in to replace the rising warm air, creating a convection current.
