Determine whether each statement describes the solid state, liquid state, or gaseous state.
1. this state is characterized by the lowest density of the three states.
2. this state is characterized by an indefinite shape and high density.
3. temperature changes significantly influence the volume of this state.
4. pressure changes influence the volume of this state more than the other two states.
5. in this state, constituent particles are less free to move around than in other states.

How do temperature and salinity affect deepwater currents? as temperatures and salinity levels of water increase, the water rises to the surface where it creates currents as it moves to colder regions. they create changes in wind direction, moving denser water in the same direction as the wind and causing the deepwater circulation patterns found in the ocean. they equalize the forces on undersea currents caused by the coriolis effect as they replace more dense water with less dense water. they create density differences that cause dense deepwater currents to flow toward the equator where they displace less dense, warmer water above them.
