    The correct answer is A) the direction of ocean currents.

    Ocean currents, with their movement, contribute to the movement of the lower air masses. The lower air masses are practically like a shadow of the ocean currents and follow it's movement, thus winds are created by the ocean currents. Also it is important to notice, that the winds can be warm and cold, dry and wet, this all depends on the temperature of the ocean currents, as well as where are they moving in the ocean waters.
