Explanation by: Admin

Volcanic lakes are formed in craters or calderas created by volcanic activity.

  • When a volcano erupts and then collapses, the depression can fill with water, forming a volcanic lake.

Other types:

  • Lagoon: Coastal water bodies separated by barriers.
  • Sweet Water Lake: Freshwater lakes, not necessarily volcanic.
  • Karst Lake: Formed by dissolution of soluble rocks like limestone.

So, lakes created by volcanic activity are Volcanic Lakes — option (C).
