    The document contains two diagrams - one of ocean currents and one of a mountain. It asks questions to test understanding of key concepts: 1. The direction of northern hemisphere ocean currents is generally westward while southern hemisphere currents generally flow eastward. 2. Warm currents are found nearer the equator, while cold currents are closer to the poles. 3. Cold currents have a cooling effect on nearby continental coastlines.
