Question

1. the movement of ocean water driven by temperature and salinity differences is called thermohaline circulation
2. oceans near the poles are colder than oceans near the tropics because they receive less sunlight
3. warm and cold currents can influence the climate of nearby coastal regions.
4. if global ocean temperatures continue to rise ocean currents and climate patterns may change.
5. many marine species are found only in certain temperature ranges because temperature affects their survival.
6. warm ocean water provides energy for making them stronger and more destructive.
7. temperature differences in the ocean create which help circulate nutrients and gases essential for marine life.

Explanation:

1. Warm ocean water supplies energy to hurricanes (or tropical cyclones), enhancing their strength and destructiveness.
2. Temperature - driven density differences in the ocean generate ocean currents, which play a key role in nutrient and gas circulation for marine life.

Answer:

1. Hurricanes (or Tropical Cyclones)
2. Ocean Currents
