Given below are two statements:
Statement I: Icebergs are not common along the Norwegian coast.
Statement II: Icebergs are very common along the Siberian coast.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

Correct option is C

The correct answer is: (c), Statement I is true but Statement II is false
Statement I: Icebergs are not common along the Norwegian coast: This statement is generally true. Icebergs are not common along the Norwegian coast compared to regions farther north, such as Greenland or the Arctic Ocean. While some icebergs may occasionally drift southward into Norwegian waters, they are not as prevalent or common as in polar regions. The presence of icebergs primarily depends on factors such as proximity to polar regions, ocean currents, and prevailing wind patterns.
Statement II: Icebergs are very common along the Siberian coast: Icebergs are not very common along the Siberian coast. The Siberian coast primarily borders the Arctic Ocean, which does have sea ice, but large icebergs originating from glaciers or ice shelves are typically found farther north in the Arctic Ocean, away from the Siberian coast.
