If there were no land on earth's surface, what would the pattern of surface currents look like? explain your answer.

If there were no land on Earth's surface, the pattern of surface currents would've looked like zigzag trails placed parallel to each other on the entire surface of the planet.

Explanation:

The surface currents in the oceans are separated from each other due to the presence of land and the their flow is governed by the pressure belts that form both over the sea and the land. If there would've been no land on the planet, the only force governing the surface currents would've been the Coriolis force. This force would've made the surface currents look like zigzag trails placed parallel to each other.
