The Dead Sea is named for its extremely high salinity, which creates an inhospitable environment for most aquatic life, leading to the absence of fish and other marine organisms. As a result, the water appears "dead." However, the name is somewhat misleading, as the Dead Sea does support some microbial life and unique salt-tolerant organisms. Its high salinity is primarily due to evaporation and mineral deposits rather than the presence of dead fish.
