Solution

The correct option is C River
Water in the oceans, seas and salt water lakes has a high amount of salt. This makes the water salty, also called as saline water. So oceans, seas and salt water lakes are the examples of saline water sources.
Whereas rivers get water from glaciers or rains. Both rains and glaciers are sources of freshwater. Thus, a river is a source of freshwater.
