Which phenomenon results when Earth's rotation causes subtropical atmospheric pressure cells to produce consistent deflection?

💡 Explanation

Persistent trade winds are created by the Coriolis effect deflecting air moving from high-pressure subtropical regions toward the equator; this occurs because the circulating air is shifted westward in both hemispheres; therefore, winds are easterly, rather than directly north or south.
