Solution

The correct option is B False
  1. Transparent Medium allows most of the light energy to pass through it. For example glass, air, vacuum.
  2. Translucent Medium partially allows the light energy to pass through it. For example, ground glass, muddy water, smoke, dust-filled air.
  3. Opaque Bodies do not allow light energy to pass through them. For example, bricks, stones, wood.
  4. The light doesn't reach the deep seawater, since the all light is getting passed through the seawater.
  5. Therefore the deep seawater or seawater, in general, is transluscent.

Hence, the given statement is false.
