Geography

An open lake is a lake where water constantly flows out under almost all climatic circumstances. Because water does not remain in an open lake for any length of time, open lakes are usually fresh water: dissolved solids do not accumulate. Open lakes form in areas where precipitation is greater than evaporation. Because most of the world's water is found in areas of highly effective rainfall, most lakes are open lakes whose water eventually reaches the sea. For instance, the Great Lakes' water flows into the St. Lawrence River and eventually the Atlantic Ocean.

In a closed lake (see endorheic drainage), no water flows out, and water which is not evaporated will remain in a closed lake indefinitely. This means that closed lakes are usually saline, though this salinity varies greatly from around three parts per thousand for most of the Caspian Sea to as much as 400 parts per thousand for the Dead Sea. Only the less salty closed lakes are able to sustain life, and it is completely different from that in rivers or freshwater open lakes. Closed lakes typically form in areas where evaporation is greater than rainfall, although most closed lakes actually obtain their water from a region with much higher precipitation than the area around the lake itself, which is often a depression of some sort.

Hope this helps :)

According to this map, how did the United States answer the Soviet threat of missiles in Cuba?
Liula [17]

The correct answer is - by blockading the island with aircraft carriers.

After Castro came to power in Cuba, he immediately made an alliance with the Soviet Union. That was a devastating news for the United States, as that meant that their arch rival will be able to make its basis right next door to their territory.

The United States responded by blocking the island as much as possible, by using numerous aircraft carriers that circled around the island, they were trying to threaten them, and also to be able to block or to respond quickly to any attack from Cuban territory.
