Respuesta :

  • The statement that The salinity of an ocean will increase when a freshwater source flows into it is false.
  • The reason behind is that the freshwater has low salinity as compared to the ocean.
  • On average, the salinity of the ocean is around 35 ppt whereas that of freshwater is 0.5 ppt or even lesser.
  • Therefore, if the freshwater will enter the ocean, due to lesser salt content it will dilute the ocean water and thus decrease its salinity.
