The two situations that represent a value of zero are:
- **water at its freezing point** (0 degrees Celsius or 32 degrees Fahrenheit)
- **a boat floating on the ocean** (this can be considered a reference point for sea level, which is often designated as zero elevation).
The other options relate to either temperatures, depths below sea level, or elevations above sea level, which do not equate to a value of zero.
- **water at its freezing point** (0 degrees Celsius or 32 degrees Fahrenheit)
- **a boat floating on the ocean** (this can be considered a reference point for sea level, which is often designated as zero elevation).
