← Q1 Q3 →

With reference to the recent survey in the Kovalam-Nemmeli backwaters, which of the following best describes the Central Asian Flyway?

A An exclusive marine turtle conservation zone established under the Ministry of Earth Sciences.
B A domestic river-linking corridor exclusively for inland fish migration within peninsular India.
C A major migratory route used by waterbirds traveling between Eurasian breeding grounds and South Asian wintering sites.
D A high-altitude trade and transit route connecting Central Asian economies with Indian ports.

Correct answer: (c) A major migratory route used by waterbirds traveling between Eurasian breeding grounds and South Asian wintering sites.

Explanation

Option C is correct because the Central Asian Flyway is defined as a major migratory route used by waterbirds traveling between Eurasian breeding grounds and South Asian wintering sites. Options A, C, and D are factually incorrect and misrepresent the flyway as trade routes, fish corridors, or marine zones.
