Answer;
C. Latitude and season
Explanation;
- Surface water temperature depends on latitude and season. The temperature of the surface water in the ocean changes from place to place and from season to season.
- Ocean temperature depends on the amount of solar energy absorbed. For example, tropical oceans receive a lot of direct overhead sunlight for much of the year, so the water is warm.
- The temperature of the surface waters varies mainly with latitude. For example The polar seas which are found on high latitude can be as cold as -2 degrees Celsius while the Persian Gulf which is on low latitude can be as warm as 36 degrees Celsius.
