Which of the following seas is completely landlocked and represents the largest inland body of water on Earth by area?

A. Aral Sea
B. Caspian Sea✓ Correct Answer
C. Dead Sea
D. Black Sea

💡 Solution & Explanation

The Caspian Sea is completely landlocked and represents the largest inland body of water on Earth by surface area, bounded by multiple Eurasian nations. Water bodies like the Aral Sea have shrunk significantly due to ecological diversion, while the Dead Sea is vastly smaller. Despite carrying the designation of a sea, it functions as a terminal lake with no outflows.
