Science brain pop quiz on currents
Team: abhinav, brooke berstien, danniele, and arnav This is the quiz for our brainpop
2
Questions What are ocean currents?
Movement of ocean water that follows a regular pattern Stream like movement of ocean water far below the surface Movement of deep, cold, and nutrient rich ocean water to the surface It is same as undertow
3
Questions 2. What is undertow? Same as ocean currents
Subsurface current that is near shore and tat pulls objects out to sea Bubbles in the crust of a breaking wave Area between the breaker zone and the shore
4
3. Surface currents are caused by Continental deflection
Questions 3. Surface currents are caused by Continental deflection Coriolis effect Global winds All of the above
5
Questions How does Coriolis effect the water’s movement? Curved path Horizontal path Clockwise Straight path
6
Questions 5. What is continental deflection?
Movement of ocean water in a curved path Movement of ocean water in a straight path When water runs in to a continent it goes another way None of them
7
Questions 6. What are surface currents? stream like movement of water under the ocean’s surface. stream like movement of water at the surface same as long shore currents None of them
8
Questions 7. What is la Nina?
Sudden change of water temperature in pacific ocean, temp is cool Sudden change of water temperature in pacific ocean, temp is warm Periodic rise and fall of the water level in the oceans None of the above
9
Questions 8. What is el Niño?
Sudden change of water temperature in pacific ocean, temp is warm Sudden change of water temperature in pacific ocean, temp is cool Periodic rise and fall of the water level in the oceans All of the above
