In which of the following parts of India 'Atolls' are commonly found ?
Answer: D
Atolls in India are found Near Lakshadweep.
An atoll is a ring-shaped coral reef enclosing a lagoon. The Lakshadweep islands in the Arabian Sea are almost all coral atolls and reefs, built on the Laccadive-Chagos ridge.
The coast near Rameshwaram has fringing coral reefs in the Gulf of Mannar but not atolls. The Sundarbans are a mangrove delta, and the Gulf of Khambhat is a shallow tidal inlet with mudflats, where corals of that kind do not grow.
