Which is the correct sequence of lakes according to depth (from maximum to minimum)?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Baikal > Tanganyika > Caspian Sea > Vostok
The correct sequence of lakes according to depth, from maximum to minimum, is as follows:
- Lake Baikal
- Lake Tanganyika
- Lake Caspian Sea
- Lake Vostok
Lake Baikal is the deepest lake in the world, followed by Lake Tanganyika. The Caspian Sea is the third deepest lake, and Lake Vostok is not one of the deepest lakes; it is a subglacial lake located beneath the Antarctic ice sheet.
