d.     All of the above

Solution

answer) option d . all of these

Westernboudary currents owe their origin to all the factors mentioned in the options, example gulf stream origin is because of the local reversal of coriolis effect, another weatern boundary current Kuroshio origin is because of thermohaline convention effect. so the correct option is d , all of these.
