🔍 Key Concepts

• Western boundary currents vs. eastern boundary currents in the major oceans • Characteristics of the Gulf Stream (temperature, speed, location, direction) • Relationship between the Gulf Stream and other North Pacific / South Atlantic / North Pacific western currents

💭 Think About

• First, recall where the Gulf Stream flows and whether it is warm or cold. Which side of the ocean basin is it on? • Look at each option and ask: is this current on the western or eastern side of its ocean, and is it generally warm or cold? • Think about which current is known as the western boundary counterpart in another ocean basin, playing a similar role to the Gulf Stream.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify the hemisphere and ocean where each listed current is found • Check whether each current is generally classified as a warm (poleward-flowing) or cold (equatorward-flowing) current • Confirm which of the options is a strong, narrow western boundary current similar in behavior and role to the Gulf Stream.
