Question

Many lakes in the Eastern Mediterranean have no river outlets to the ocean. As a result, what levels of mineral content and salinity do they usually have?
a. high levels of minerals and low salinity
b. low levels of minerals and high salinity
c. low levels of both minerals and salinity
d. high levels of both minerals and salinity

Answer 1

"d. high levels of both minerals and salinity" would be the best option, since without direct contact with larger bodies of water it's very hard for the minerals and salt to dissipate and "spread out".
