Explanation by: Admin

The Dead Sea, located between Jordan and Israel, is the world’s most saline lake with a salinity of around 33-35%.

  • This is ten times saltier than typical seawater, making it one of the saltiest water bodies on Earth.
  • The high salt concentration prevents most marine life from surviving, hence the name "Dead Sea".

Why are the other options incorrect?

  • Vaughan Lake – Not known for extreme salinity.
  • Lake Superior – A freshwater lake in North America.
  • Lake Baikal – The deepest freshwater lake, not a saline lake.

Thus, the Dead Sea (Option B) is the correct answer.
