Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. Dead Sea.
The Dead Sea is the saltiest water body bordering Jordan in the east and Israel in the west. Known for its extremely high salinity, it is also the lowest point on earth. Its name derives from the fact that its high salt content prevents the flourishing of marine life, making it a "dead" environment. The unique mineral-rich mud and therapeutic properties of its water have made it a popular destination for health and wellness tourism.
