The movement of streams of ocean water

Real World Example

Imagine trying to navigate through a crowded shopping mall during the holiday season. Just as shoppers follow pathways and corridors, creating a flow of movement, streams of ocean water also have specific pathways they follow due to factors like wind, water density, and the Earth's rotation. In this analogy, the shoppers represent water molecules, the mall corridors are akin to ocean pathways, and the push and pull of people are similar to the forces that drive ocean currents, guiding them along their routes.
