To determine at which location the salinity of the ocean is most likely to be the least, we need to consider the average yearly temperatures at the four locations provided. Salinity can often be inversely related to temperature, meaning that locations with lower temperatures might have lower salinity.
Let's analyze the given temperature data:
1. Location A: Average yearly temperature = 31°C
2. Location B: Average yearly temperature = 23°C
3. Location C: Average yearly temperature = 18°C
4. Location D: Average yearly temperature = 48°C
From the temperatures, we identify the lowest average yearly temperature.
- Location A: 31°C
- Location B: 23°C
- Location C: 18°C
- Location D: 48°C
The lowest average yearly temperature among these is 18°C, which is at Location C.
Thus, the salinity of the ocean is most likely to be the least at Location C.
