51 generally lakes have drainage system and they merges with another water body.. it may be either river or ocean... if any lake merges with river or sea,,the water in that river will be fresh but if any lake didnt have drainage system,,the salts which are come to the lake accumulated on that lake and causes water saline..
52 geographic information system. it literally means a computer system for capturing, storing, checking, and displaying data related to positions on Earth's surface
53 in polar regions oceans are less salty because of ice covered above water but in tropics because of evaporation of water,salinity is high
