How does the uneven heating in the ocean cause convection currents?

it causes the difference in density, denser water flows to the less dense parts


As deep ocean water becomes colder it also becomes?

denser, due to the decrease in temperature causing the water molecules to contract and become more tightly packed. This increased density causes the cold water to sink to the bottom of the ocean, creating ocean currents as it displaces warmer, less dense water.


Which is denser ocean water or fresh water?

ocean water, because it is saltier.

How does water freezing at the poles helps create deep ocean currents?

When seawater freezes the salt is excluded from the ice and stays with the portion that remains liquid. The result is highly saline water called brine. The brine is denser than normal seawater and so sinks the the ocean floor, forming deep currents.
