you should really read your textbook.
Winds and ocean currents move water parallel to Earth's surface. Winds can create surface currents through friction with the ocean's surface, while ocean currents are driven by a combination of factors such as wind, temperature, salinity, and the Earth's rotation.
Surface currents can be very fast on water.
The sun heats the water, causing cold / hot circulation, and evaporation. It also heats the air, causing wind, which also moves currents.
The sun causes currents in the ocean because it is warming the water in the ocean in the day while it is hot, and then in the night when the sun goes down, the ocean starts to cool. Since the air above the water is warmer than in the water, this causes the water to rise up to the warmth until it gets cooled by the night, or from rain. This is what created movement and currents in the ocean from the sun.

Ocean currents is what forms surface currents. This starts deep in the ocean.
Surface ocean currents are caused by winds. As wind blows across the surface, the wind pulls the water and causes waves.
Deep ocean currents are in the depths of the oceans. Surface current are at the surface, not deep down. Deep ocean currents bring vitamins and nutrients to the shore, surface currents do not. Deep ocean currents are caused by salinity and temperature differences. Surface currents are cause by the force and impact of the wind.

Deep ocean currents are caused by salinity and temperature differences. Surface currents are cause by the force and impact of the wind.
The three types of ocean currents are surface currents, deep currents, and tidal currents. Surface currents are driven by winds, deep currents are driven by density and temperature differences, and tidal currents are driven by the gravitational pull of the moon and sun.
The rising of the deep cold currents to the ocean surface is called
the ocean .
