Question:

Which of the following seas has highest salinity in the world?

Options:

Dead sea

Black sea

Red sea

Mediterranean sea

Correct Answer:

Dead sea

Explanation:

The Dead Sea has the highest salinity among the options provided. It is one of the saltiest bodies of water in the world. The high salinity is due to the fact that the Dead Sea is landlocked, and water entering the sea has no outlet. As water evaporates, it leaves behind salts and minerals, leading to the concentration of salts in the Dead Sea.
