<u>Answer
</u>
D. Salt water is denser than freshwater.
<u>Explanation</u>
A boat is able to float on water because it experiences an upthrust upwards.
The magnitude of the upthrust depends on the density of the liquid.
When the liquid is denser the boat will experience a great upthrust as compared to when in a less dense liquid.
If the boat sinks lower in the freshwater than in salty water, then Salt water is more dense than freshwater.
