Oceans and continents are connected through the process of plate tectonics. The movement of tectonic plates causes continents to drift apart or come together, creating ocean basins and mountain ranges. Additionally, ocean currents play a role in redistributing heat and nutrients around the world, influencing global climate patterns.
