Ocean currents:

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ocean currents play a significant role in determining the average temperature of a region. For example, the warm Gulf Stream current influences the mild climate of western Europe, while the cold Labrador Current contributes to the cooler temperatures of eastern Canada. Therefore, option C is the correct choice. Option A and D are incorrect as ocean currents play a role in determining average temperature all year round, not just in summer months. Option B is also incorrect as there are other factors (such as elevation and latitude) that also contribute to the average temperature of a region.
