Which one of the following characterizes paternoster lake ?
Answer: D
A paternoster lake is one of a series of lakes formed on glacial stairways: in a glaciated valley the ice scoops out hollows in the rock steps and the water collects in them, so they are arranged like beads of a rosary, which gives them the name. A lake of volcanic origin is a crater lake, a shallow stretch of water cut from the sea is a lagoon and a crescent shaped lake formed by a cut-off meander is an oxbow lake. The answer is D.
