Why is the Black Sea named black the Yellow Sea as yellow and the Red Sea as red?

Because the Mediterranian is relatively clear, and the Black Sea runs into it (via the Aegean Sea, just another name, it's still part of the Mediterranian Sea); the Black Sea appears Black when compared to the Mediterrainian Sea. Visibility is poor and air is almost non-existent in the depths of the Black Sea. The Yellow Sea has sand particles blown onto it by the deserts in China, and give the sea a yellowish appearance when sailing upon it. The Red Sea has a seasonal bacteria upon it's surface, giving it a redish appearance.
