Question

Ocean circulation is the large scale movement of water in the ocean. It involves the transport of heat through convection, which is the movement of heat through liquids and gases.

Which statement describes how convection moves he in the ocean during non-El Niño(normal) years?

A.Convection moves he towards the west
B. Convection moves heat towards the east
C. Convection moves heat towards the north
D. Convection moves he towards the south

Answer 1

A) Convection moves heat toward the west.

Step-by-step explanation:

have a nice day.

Answer 2

A. Convection moves he towards the west

Step-by-step explanation:

Convection moves towards the west in the ocean during non-El Niño or normal years because during El Niño years, the convection moves towards the eastern side. During an El Niño event, westward-movement of trade winds weaken along the Equator. The changes in air pressure and wind speed lead the warm surface water to move eastward along the Equator so during normal condition, it moves towards western direction.
