🔍 Key Concepts

• Eastern boundary currents in major ocean basins (cold vs warm currents) • General flow around the South Atlantic gyre • Relationship between current direction and the nearby continental coastline

💭 Think About

• Think about where the Benguela Current is located: which ocean and which side of which continent? • In the South Atlantic gyre, does the eastern boundary current flow toward the equator or toward the pole? • Look carefully at the coastline descriptions in each choice: which one matches the southwest coast of Africa and a cold, eastern boundary current?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which answer choice actually mentions the African coast in the South Atlantic • Check whether the direction given (e.g., NW'ly, SW'ly) is toward the equator or toward higher latitudes in that region • Eliminate any options that clearly describe the wrong ocean basin or continent (e.g., Australia, Greenland)
