a. it brings warm water from the tropics to the poles.
Explanation:
The process of upwelling is an oceanographic phenomenon as it brings up the warm water form the hot and dry areas in the cold and heavy water zones and hence creates a balance in the global water and heat distribution on earth.
This is effected by the water driven wave and ocean currents and they are divided into various types as the coastal, equatorial and oceanic and the other sources of water include the water upwelling form he ridges and tropical cyclone and the artificial upwelling that is produced by the man-made events.
