- ALebanon
- BJordan
- CIsrael
- DPalestine
- ENone of the above / More than one of the above
Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: (a) Lebanon or (e) None of the above / More than one of the above
Explanation
The Dead Sea is a salt lake between Jordan on the east and Israel and the West Bank on the west. Lebanon lies north of Israel and has no border with the Dead Sea, so option (a) is accepted.
The official Dead Sea website shows the lake on the border of Israel and Jordan only. On that view Palestine also has no land border with it, more than one option fits, and the answer is (e), as the answer key gives. Both (a) and (e) are accepted here.
