Answer:

The answer is A. warmer

Step-by-step explanation:

The distribution of water bodies in the ocean is established by their density, which is mainly affected by their temperature and salinity. The temperature intervenes in the sense that the higher its temperature, the less dense the water is, so the hot water is on the surface of the ocean, while the colder water will be denser and therefore will be at the bottom.
