Question

Which one of the following is not a maritime zone under 1982 UN Convention of the Law of the Sea?

• A. Contiguous Zone
• B. Exclusive Economic Zone
• C. Inclusive Deep Seabed
• D. Internal Waters and Archipelagic Waters

Hint:

Familiarize yourself with UNCLOS maritime zones: Territorial Sea, Contiguous Zone, EEZ, Continental Shelf, and the Area.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

The 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) defines maritime zones such as the Contiguous Zone, Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), and Internal Waters and Archipelagic Waters. The "Inclusive Deep Seabed" is not a recognized maritime zone under UNCLOS; the deep seabed is referred to as the "Area" and is governed separately. Thus, the correct answer is: \[ {\text{Inclusive Deep Seabed}} \]
