प्रश्न
Name the factors originating within the sea which cause ocean currents.
उत्तर
The amount of salinity in the oceans in different parts is quite different. So the more saline water starts to sink downwards and the less saline water runs to take its place on the surface, e.g., the ocean current flows from the Atlantic ocean towards the Mediterranean sea.
