Stagnant
Line-break:OnOff

Adjective
(of a body of water or the atmosphere of a confined space ) having no current or flow and often having an unpleasant smell as a consequence:

A stagnant ditch

This is the definition of stagnant.

River is known to be flowing water where as the explanation given relates to pond because ponds are famous for its stagnant water.

The explanation is not clear and doesn't make much sense.

Sea have salt water but others not. I think this is also one of the logic.

The sea is many things but it is not stagnant!

The sea is salt water, all the others are fresh water. That's one valid answer. Yours is invalid.
