What is the primary cause that drives the ocean conveyor belt, also referred to as thermohaline circulation?

A:Water pressure

B:Winds

C:Water density

D:Tides


Answer :

Answer:

Water Density

Explanation:

There is constant motion in the ocean in the form of a global ocean conveyor belt. This motion is caused by a combination of thermohaline currents (thermo = temperature; haline = salinity) in the deep ocean and wind-driven currents on the surface.
