Solution

The correct option is B Temperate regions
Oceans will have more salinity in the region where more evaporation takes place. In tropical regions the solar rays have higher intensity, it causes more evaporation. The temperate and the polar regions receive the low intensity of sun rays which results in lower evaporation and lower salinity.
