D. The Coriolis effect influences the temperature of global winds.

Respuesta :

Answer:  A. The Coriolis effect influences the direction of global winds.

Explanation: If not for the Earth's rotation, global winds would blow in straight north-south lines. The Coriolis effect influences wind direction around the world in this way: in the Northern Hemisphere it curves winds to the right; in the Southern Hemisphere it curves them left. The exception is with low pressure systems.
