Question 1

Which of the following observations provides evidence that oceans play a major role in weather patterns on land?

1. Most of the major ocean currents are driven by patterns of wind and changed by the shape of the continents.

2. Weather patterns are similar along the coast of a continent but different when moving from the coast to the center of a continent.

3. Large bodies of water like the Pacific Ocean have very little land to interfere with the movement of ocean currents.

4. Temperature differences between the atmosphere and seawater generate very windy conditions over the oceans.
