The student wants to contrast Minnesota's definition of a lake with Wisconsin's. Which choice most effectively uses relevant information from the notes to accomplish this goal? Notes: Minnesota defines a lake as an inland body of water of at least 10 acres. Wisconsin's definition of a lake doesn't take size into account. By its own definition, Wisconsin has over 15,000 lakes, many smaller than 10 acres. By Minnesota's definition, Wisconsin has only about 6,000 lakes.
