Question

put the events in order to show how the global conveyor belt works. assume that you are starting with cold water on the bottom of the ocean near antarctica, and it is gradually starting to warm as it moves north. water reaches norwegian sea water warms and rises to surface. water flows near surface. water cools and sinks to the bottom. water flows south to antarctica. try again intro 8 of 10

Explanation:

The global conveyor belt is a system of ocean currents. Cold water near Antarctica (starting point) moves north. As it warms (due to heat absorption), it becomes less dense and rises to the surface. Then it flows near the surface (surface - current phase). After reaching the Norwegian Sea (a northern region), it cools (loses heat to the atmosphere) and becomes dense again, sinking to the bottom. Finally, it flows south back to Antarctica to complete the cycle.

Answer:

1. Water flows near surface.
2. Water reaches Norwegian Sea.
3. Water cools and sinks to the bottom.
4. Water flows south to Antarctica.
5. Water warms and rises to surface.
