Which geographic offset increases due to Earth's rotation?

A)Deflection of large ocean currents
B)Rain shadow on mountain slopes
C)Latitudinal temperature variation impact
D)Erosion rates along river banks

💡 Explanation

Ocean currents exhibit curving paths due to the Coriolis effect, because this force deflects moving objects relative to Earth’s rotating frame of reference; therefore, ocean currents are notably shifted, rather than landforms or latitudinal heating processes.
