Which statements describe the movement of ocean currents around the globe? Check all that apply.Strong winds force warm water to sink to the ocean floor.The Coriolis effect causes warm and cold water to mix.Cool dense water sinks to the ocean floor.Warm water replaces cool surface water.Wind blowing parallel to the shore causes upwelling of cool water.

Cool water is denser than warm water, so it can sink toward the ocean floor. As cool surface water moves away or sinks, warmer water can move in to replace it. Winds blowing parallel to a coast can also push surface water away from shore, allowing cool water from below to rise in a process called upwelling. The Coriolis effect deflects moving water; it does not cause warm and cold water to mix.
