Sunday Times travel quiz

Last-minute head-scratching over Q38: it seems to be true if you define the Atlantic widely enough to include fringe waters (Caribbean, Arctic etc), false if not. Any agreed definition of Atlantic in use? Also Q24a: Is Saint-Denis part of Paris or a separate city in itself?

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I've seen this answered elsewhere taking definitions in Encylopedia Brittanica and one other source as being false. I've also used the CIA factbook and it's false according to it.
There was one place that defined the atlantic as 106sq km, which seems a lot larger than most other estimates and it's the only case I can find where the answer would be narrowly true, so I'm sticking with false.
Any other opinions?
