The salt in the ocean comes from the rocks on land. The rain that falls onto land caontains some kind of dissovled carbon dioxide from the air. And that causes the water to be a bit acid to carbolic acid. Also rain replenishes freshwater in rivers and streams, so they don’t taste salty. However, the water in the ocean collects all of the salt and minerals from all of the rivers that flow into it.<span>

Answer:

C) Reflects the light from the sun

Explanation:

Moon does not emit its own light. The moonlight is primarily the sunlight that is being reflected form the surface of moon. The moon is actually quite black so only a little amount of sunlight is reflected back.

We see colour due to the presence of cones in our retina. When we look at the moon, the light coming from moon does not have enough intensity to excite or cone cells and thus only rod cell are get excited. As the rods can't sense colours so the moon appears white.
