Correct Answer: Peru current


Solution : The correct option is Peru Current.

The "Peru Current" does not exist in the Atlantic Ocean. it is a Pacific Ocean circulation. The Gulf Stream, Canary Current, and Brazil Current are all Atlantic Ocean currents. The Peru Current, sometimes known as the Humboldt Current is a cold ocean current that moves northward along South America's western coast, particularly along the Peru and Chile coasts. It is derived from cold, nutrient-rich waters in the southern Pacific Ocean, making it one of the world's most prolific marine ecosystems. The Peru Current influences the climate and marine life along the South American coast, sustaining a varied diversity of marine creatures and fisheries.
