The answer is; B & D

The Coriolis effect of the earth’s rotation is greatest at the equator. Therefore, currents are deflected closer to the equator than the poles.

The densities of ocean waters are also determined by its salinity and temperatures. More saline and cold waters are denser than less saline warm waters. Ocean waters at the equator are less dense than those at the poles.
