What cause wind to be deflected to the right or the left as they from high pressure to low pressure?
Winds are deflected to the right in the northern hemisphere because of the earths rotation.
What do currents in earth's liquid core cause?
It cause Tsunami
In the northern hemisphere planetary winds are deflected to the right due to what?
Cause by Earth's rotation
What do currents do to marine life?
Currents cause marine life to be pushed around, that's why fish are sometimes on shore.
Are global winds and ocean currents related?
The rotation of the Earth, coupled with the difference in temperature between the air and water, creates currents. Warm air and sea tend to flow towards the poles where the cooled air then flows back towards the equator. Land obstructions cause the currents to alter their course. The air is faster to warm up and cool down than the oceans, with surface water being affected more quickly than the deeper water.

What are currents and what do they cause?
wind
What do deep currents cause?
They cause movement of the ocean.
What cause surface currents?
Wind!
What do currents in earth's liquid core cause?
It cause Tsunami
What causes density currents?
Currents in the coastal water masses
What is the cause of surface currents?
The circulation of cold and warm water between the poles and the equator, and the rotation of the earth, cause ocean currents to flow.
Do convection currents in the oceans cause tectonic plates to move?
No, convection currents in the upper mantle cause tectonic plates to move.
What is the cause of most surface currents?
Density
In the northern hemisphere planetary winds are deflected to the right due to what?
Cause by Earth's rotation
What is the name given to the cause of winds being deflected to the right?
The Coriolis Effect. It's caused by the rotation of the earth.
Do convection currents cause volcano activity?
yes
