Solution

The correct options are
B currents
C waves
D tides
Oceanic movements can be classified into waves, currents and tides. When the water on the surface of the ocean rises and falls, they are called waves. Tides are periodic movements of ocean water due to the Moon and Sun’s gravity. Ocean currents are channels of water moving in a particular direction in the oceans.
