Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
The Mediterranean Deep water is not produced by caballing. Some Antarctic Bottom Water is
produced by caballing or the mixing and sinking of water masses. Information can be found in the
section Thermohaline Circulation Affects All the Ocean's Water.



Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
An eddy is a turbulent ring that has cold or warm water trapped within its center. It becomes separate
from the main flow of water. In the Gulf Stream, cold water eddies rotate counterclockwise while
warm water eddies move clockwise. Information can be found in the section Surface Currents Are
Driven by the Winds.
