Pressure gradient: Air moves from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure as observed during land and sea breeze.
Coriolis effect is the deflection of moving air caused by the rotation of the earth.
Friction: It only affects the air movement in contact with the Earth. Friction slows down the air and if the air slows down, the Coriolis effect has more effect then of air movement.
