Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Upwelling is the process where deep, cold, nutrient-rich water rises to the surface, often due to wind patterns or differences in water density. This process brings nutrients from the deep to support the growth of surface-dwelling organisms like phytoplankton, which form the base of the marine food web.
