World Geographical Records

The Nile River is traditionally considered the world's longest river at approximately 6,650 kilometers. The Amazon River carries more water but is shorter. Options C and D both refer to the same river (Ganga/Ganges).

The Baltic Sea has an average depth of only about 55 meters, making it one of the shallowest seas globally. The Caspian Sea reaches over 1,000 meters deep, and the Arabian Sea exceeds 4,500 meters. Lake Superior is actually a lake, not a sea, but is also deeper than the Baltic Sea.

Greenland is the world's largest island that is not a continent. Australia is technically a continent, though sometimes colloquially called an island continent; in geography, Greenland holds the title for largest island.

The Grand Canal of China is the longest and oldest canal or artificial river in the world, starting in Beijing and ending in Hangzhou. Titicaca is a lake, and Angel refers to a waterfall.

The Nile is traditionally considered the longest river in the world, stretching approximately 6,650 kilometers (4,130 miles) through northeastern Africa. The Volga is the longest in Europe, but much shorter than the Nile.

Burj Khalifa in Dubai stands 828 meters (2,717 feet) tall, making it the world's tallest building since 2010. Taipei 101 (508m) held the title from 2004-2010, Willis Tower (442m) was tallest from 1974-1998, and Petronas Towers (452m) held it from 1998-2004.

The Spring Temple Buddha in China is 153 meters tall, making it the tallest statue in the world as of 2010. It was completed in 2008 and is located in the Zhaocun township of Lushan County, Henan, China.

Oceans cover approximately 71% of Earth's surface, though 75% is commonly used as a rounded figure in educational materials. 98% would leave almost no land, 80% is too high, and 50% would mean equal land and water coverage - none of these match the actual distribution.

This is a literal/riddle question. The 'deepest' part of any body of water is logically at the bottom. 'End', 'Start', and 'Middle' are relative horizontal positions, whereas depth is a vertical measurement ending at the bottom.

The Kuroshio Current (also called Kurosiwo or Black Current), Kurile Current, and Alaskan Current are all major oceanic currents in the Pacific Ocean. The Kuroshio is a warm western boundary current flowing northward along Japan's east coast, the Kurile Current flows along the Kuril Islands, and the Alaskan Current flows along the coast of Alaska - all in the North Pacific Ocean.

The Sahara Desert in Africa is the largest hot desert in the world, covering approximately 9.2 million square kilometers. The Arabian Desert is second largest, the Gobi Desert in Mongolia/China is third, and the Kalahari Desert in Southern Africa is smaller than all three.

This is correct. The oceanic resources beyond 200 nautical miles of the Exclusive Economic Zone are considered open ocean and are international resources.

Panama borders Costa Rica to the west, Colombia to the southeast, and is surrounded by both the Pacific Ocean and Caribbean Sea (Atlantic). Venezuela is located in South America east of Colombia and does not share any border with Panama.

Bhakra Dam, at 226 meters height, was historically recognized as the highest gravity dam in the world. Gravity dams use their own weight to resist water pressure. Hirakud is the longest dam in India, while Nagarjuna Sagar is the tallest masonry dam. Beas Dam is smaller than Bhakra.
