Examine the given statements and correct the wrong ones.

The deep ocean currents flow with high velocity

False

Deep ocean water constitutes about 90% of the ocean water. Unlike, surface ocean currents which are driven by high-speed planetary winds, deep ocean water is driven by differences in temperature and density. Thus, the velocity of deep ocean currents is low compared to surface currents. The redistribution of the ocean water through the movement of deep ocean current is a continuous process and it takes around 500 years to complete one cycle of redistribution of ocean water.
