Question

What is the primary cause that drives the ocean conveyor belt, also referred to as thermohaline circulation?

A:Water pressure

B:Winds

C:Water density

D:Tides

Answer 1

It is a water pressure

Answer 2

Water Density

Step-by-step explanation:

There is constant motion in the ocean in the form of a global ocean conveyor belt. This motion is caused by a combination of thermohaline currents (thermo = temperature; haline = salinity) in the deep ocean and wind-driven currents on the surface.
