> IMO ocean water and seawater are one & the same. Sometimes you'll find the LSAT might change verbiage in this way & so you have to be a little open-minded when it comes to the AC's. It might not state verbatim the words in the stimulus; you have to make the assumption that they are synonymous, which I don't think is an unreasonable jump to make in this scenario. Hope that helps!

Yes this helps, thank you so much!!

Hahah this was great!

Hi guys! Thank you all very much for the explanations - however I still seem to be having issues at the very end of the of the explanations...

So the correct answer choice (B) is "_The concentration of O-18 in the **seawater** is increased_".

And I understand everything in The 180 Bro_OVO's explanation right up until the part where it says "This is the answer in B.", because the conclusion right before this part is "_As a result, the **ocean** water has a higher level of O-18_."

I'm so sorry if I'm the only one who cant seem to grasp the logic behind this jump, but shouldn't answer choice B say "OCEAN" instead of "seawater"? What am I missing?

Thank you so so much!
