When prevailing winds blow from onshore to offshore, what generally happens?
A) The winds cause offshore surface water to flow away from shore, forcing deeper water to rise to the surface.
B) The wind drives a longshore current, which draws cold air from higher latitudes, producing a cold climate.
C) The wind drives the water away from shore, forcing the water to descend in a downwelling zone.
D) The dry conditions from the land evaporate surface waters, making them more dense due to salinity increase, and they sink.
