Could you accept stuff like Okhotsk, Baltic and Mediterranean? Also, I'm pretty sure it's called the Gulf of California, not the Gulf od California.

Yeah, calling the quiz "25 largest bodies of water" would make the Caspian Sea eligible. And of course there are many seas which are larger than the ones toward the end of this list, but maybe not all of them were counted as seas by the source used to make this quiz.
