Answer:
The correct answer would be option C.
Salt water refers to the water in which high concentration of dissolved salts are present due to which they are much saltier in taste and they have very high conductivity comparatively.
It is not suitable for drinking as high salt concentration can lead to dehydration in humans.
Thus, it needs to be desalinated to convert it into potable or freshwater. Freshwater is the water in which the concentration of dissolved salts is less than 1 percent.
Therefore, the amount of dissolved solids in freshwater is less as compared to the salt water.
