GENERAL KNOWLEDGE

Detailed explanation-1: -The recent air flows toward the poles, and therefore the cold air moves toward the equator. They work together to maneuver heat and water across the world. Wind-driven and ocean-current circulations move warm water toward the poles and colder water toward the equator.

Detailed explanation-2: -Ocean currents act much like a conveyor belt, transporting warm water and precipitation from the equator toward the poles and cold water from the poles back to the tropics. Thus, ocean currents regulate global climate, helping to counteract the uneven distribution of solar radiation reaching Earth’s surface.

Detailed explanation-3: -The winds drive ocean circulation transporting warm water to the poles along the sea surface. As the water flows poleward, it releases heat into the atmosphere.

Detailed explanation-4: -Winds and ocean currents play a major role in moving the surplus heat from the equatorial regions to the polar regions. Without this heat transfer, the polar regions of Earth would get colder every year and regions between   35 N and 35 S would get warmer every year.
