Surface winds on Earth are
primarily caused by differences in Air density due to unequal heating of
Earth's surface. The answer is letter A. Surface currents are driven by winds
that blow in certain patterns. They are caused by the Earth’s spin and the
Coriolis effect. Evaporation adds water to the atmosphere. It is the change
from liquid to gas wherein liquid molecules tends to go the gas phase and
increases the number of molecules.
