What do we call the streams of water flowing constantly on the ocean surface in definite directions ?
Answer: B
They are called currents.
Ocean currents are streams of water flowing constantly on the ocean surface in definite directions. They may be warm, like the Gulf Stream, or cold, like the Labrador Current, and they influence the climate of the coasts they pass.
The other options are different movements. Tides are the rhythmic rise and fall of sea level, caused mainly by the Moon's pull. Waves are the up-and-down movement of surface water, mostly raised by wind, and do not carry water steadily in one direction. A tsunami is a huge wave set off by an undersea earthquake or similar disturbance.
