Why is Chilika Lake called a lagoon?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because it is a brackish water lake near the coast connected with the sea

Chilika Lake, on the Odisha coast, is a brackish-water lagoon. A lagoon is a shallow coastal water body that remains connected to the sea but is partly separated from it by a sandbar or coastal barrier. Therefore, option A is correct. A glacial lake is formed by glacier-related processes, whereas Chilika is a coastal lagoon. Exam tip: remember Chilika as the lagoon on the Odisha coast.
