How does carbon move from plants and animals into the atmosphere?
Plants absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
How does carbon move from the atmosphere to the oceans?
The oceans, and other bodies of water, soak up some carbon from the atmosphere.
How deep currents form and move in the ocean?
deep ocean currents form by the differences in the density of ocean water
What do you call the circulation in ocean that brings deep cold water to the surface?
Ocean convection currents move the deep cold water to the surface of oceans.
What process enables water molecules to move from the ocean to the atmosphere?
Process of evaporation.
What is the process called where gases move between the ocean's surface and the atmosphere?
its called get a life
What is the name of the theory that explains how forces deep within earth can cause ocean floors to spread and continent to move?
Theory of plate tectonics explains how forces deep within earth can cause ocean floors to spread and continents to move

How will greenhouse gas affect the ocean?
The main direct effect of greenhouse gas on the ocean is increased acidity. As atmospheric carbon dioxide levels rise, more carbon dioxide is dissolved in the surface waters of the oceans. Dissolved carbon dioxide is carbonic acid, and increased levels have been detected in the water. This is believed to be responsible for coral bleaching. There is very little interchange between the warmer waters close to the surface and the deep ocean waters, but over a period of thousands of years, the dissolved carbon dioxide will eventually move to the lower waters, enabling the oceans to remove more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Indirectly, because greenhouse gases raise the temperature of the earth, the ocean also warms and expands. This has been partly responsible for rising sea levels, although the melting of the ice caps and glaciers also plays a part.
What are the deep ocean currents?
These currents make up 90% of the ocean waters.These waters move around the ocean basins due to variations in the density and gravity.Deep waters sinks into the deep ocean basins at high latitudes , where the temperatures are cold enough to cause the density to increase.
What is to move or cause to move rapidly back and forth or up and down?
a current there is a deep ocean current wich is in the midnight zone of the ocean. but there is also a surface current witch is in the sunlight zone of the sea.
What percentage does potassium take up the atmosphere?
Potassium is not a gas, it is a metal. It is found in mineral salts, not the atmosphere. It can be found in the atmosphere in small enough particles that move via wind currents, ocean spray, ect. but it is not a component of the atmosphere.
