Question 3 of 5
3. Question
1 pointsConsider the following countries:
- Bulgaria
- Romania
- Georgia
- Armenia
- Turkey
How many of the above countries have a coastline along the Black Sea?
Correct
Answer: C
Explanation:
- Option C is correct: The Black Sea is the largest inland body of water and is also the largest meromictic basin, which means the movement of water between the lower and upper layers of the Sea is rare. This creates considerable temperature and nutrient differences between these layers, with the lower layers being absolutely free of oxygen and anoxic. This complex water chemistry is fueled by extensive freshwater inputs from multiple large rivers and rainfall, with salt water exchanges with the Aegean Sea only through the Bosphorus and Dardanelles Strait.
It is bordered by Ukraine to the north, Russia to the northeast, Georgia to the east, Turkey to the south, and Bulgaria and Romania to the west. It is not bordered by Armenia.
