Answer:

a. the lowest land on the planet.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • As the geography of Israel is diverse and has a desert condition in the south and the snow-capped peaks in the north of Israel. It's bounded by Jordan and Syria in the northeast.
  • The dead sea is found in the Jordan rift valley and the dead sea is about 1,020 km square of the 420 m in depth being the lowest surface point on the earth.
