Question

question 11 atm and ocean circ: ocean currents deep currents are best described as warm salty cold not dense

Explanation:

Deep - ocean currents are often cold, dense, and salty. They are formed due to differences in water density caused by temperature (thermo -) and salinity (haline) variations. Cold water is denser and sinks, while warm water is less dense and rises. Salinity also affects density, with saltier water being denser. However, deep - ocean water is generally cold, so the 'warm' option is incorrect. Deep currents are salty and dense.

Answer:

salty
