Question
Where is Lake Superior, the largest freshwater lake in the world, located?
Answer: Option B
Answer: (b)
Lake Superior is the largest of the five traditionally demarcated Great Lakes of North America. It is bounded to the north by the Canadian province of Ontario and the U.S. state of Minnesota, and to the south by the U.S. states of Wisconsin and Michigan.
It is generally considered the largest freshwater lake in the world by surface area. Lake Superior is the largest freshwater lake in the world in area (if Lakes Michigan and Huron are taken separately; see Lake Michigan–Huron), and the third-largest in volume, behind Lake Baikal in Siberia and Lake Tanganyika in East Africa.
The Caspian Sea, while larger than Lake Superior in both surface area and volume, is brackish.
