What are the major differences between eastern boundary currents in gyres and western boundary currents in gyres?
Eastern boundary currents are relatively shallow, broad, and slow-flowing. Western boundary currents are warm, deep, narrow, and fast-flowing currents that form on the west side of ocean basins due to western intensification.
What line mark the boundaries of the western hemisphere?
The prime meridian at longitude 0° marks the eastern boundary of the Western Hemisphere The corresponding anti-meridian at Longitude 180° marks the western boundary of the Western Hemisphere. (In practical terms you could also consider the international date line to be the boundary - just not the official boundary.)

Do currents on the western boundary of a gyre tend to be cold deep and fast?
A gyre is a current driven by the wind. The western boundary currents tend to be warm in temperature, and fast in speed. They are also deeper than the cold and slow eastern boundary currents.
In the Southern Hemisphere western boundary currents generally flow where?
Northward
Western boundary currents are deflected by the eastern coastlines of the continents?
True
