When lakes are not connected to an ocean what happens?
If they are not connected the lakes would over flow and the land surrounding them would all be but wiped away.
Answer 2:The above answer has it very wrong. With a lake that is connected only by a river that flows into it, it will not overflow and wipe the surrounding land away, it doesn't work that way; lakes are not bath tubs or kitchen sinks, they have the ability to "regulate" water in a way where it allows water to flow to underground water systems deep below the surface, which will drain into other rivers or creeks or even start a creek as a spring. Of course during times when rivers are reaching their peak and are prone to flooding the lake will overflow its banks, but not so much that it will turn the surrounding land into a sea or ocean!Where at in the ocean do sea horses live?
