To demonstrate part of the water cycle, a science teacher taped a sealed plastic bag containing water on a window in the classroom. After a few hours in the sunlight, tiny drops of water formed near the top of the bag. How does this model illustrate the role of the Sun in the water cycle?

It shows how the Sun's energy causes water to evaporate from Earth's surface, making clouds in the atmosphere as it cools.

It shows how the Sun's energy causes warm salt water to sink in the ocean as it heats up, creating ocean currents.

It shows how the Sun's energy causes water vapor to heat up as it rises higher in the atmosphere, making precipitation.

It shows how the Sun's energy causes water vapor to condense on Earth's surface as it cools, creating lakes and ponds.

Which of the following best explains why surface currents turn in opposite directions above and below the equator?

Surface currents are affected by the rotation of Earth, and this is called the Coriolis effect.

Surface currents are affected by the rotation of Earth, and this is called the circular effect.

The density of the water above and below the equator line is opposite, causing the currents to rotate in opposite directions.

The temperature of the water above and below the equator is opposite, causing the currents to rotate in opposite directions.

How does temperature affect ocean currents?

Cold water is dense and will sink. As the water warms up, it becomes less dense and will rise to the surface.

Cold water moves fast and will sink. As the water warms up, it slows down and will rise to the surface.

Warm water moves fast and will sink. As the water cools down, it slows down and will rise to the surface.

Warm water is dense and will sink. As the water cools down, it becomes less dense and will rise to the surface.
