Could anybody help me with this context?

Quote:
" Lake Baikal,which today is located near the center of the Asian peninsula is most likely the world's oldest lake.It began forming 25 million years ago as Asia started splitting apart in a series of great faults. The Baikal Valley dropped away, eventually filling with water and creating the deepest of the world's lakes."

It is mentioned that Lake Baikal
a) is not as old as some other lakes
b) formed when sections of the Earth were moving away from each other
c) was fully formed 25 million years ago
d) is today located on the edge of the Asian peninsula

Why don't you have a go at it first? Which answer would you say is the right one?
