First of all, i have tried finding answers on internet and too using google. But either everyone is talking about measuring sea levels and the acceptance of fifth ocean or i am not using correct keywords.
**My question is** if ocean is a single water body, then why it is divided into 5. What’s the basis of division? Does two different seas have difference in water? Because i have seen a photo some years ago about 2 Ocean meeting but not dissolving. Is that thing real?
Edit: THANKYOU ALL OF YOU FOR YOUR ANSWERS

Because it’s useful for navigation.
The oceans and seas were named by sailors and other people who had to travel around on the water. They needed a way to talk about where things were and refer to different regions of the world, so they gave different areas of water different names, since “it’s in the ocean” isn’t a great way to describe something.
