Solution

The correct option is B Red Sea
The Suez Canal is an artificial sea-level waterway in Egypt, connecting the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea through the Isthmus of Suez. It was opened in November 1869 after 10 years of construction work and it allows ship transport between Europe and eastern Asia without navigation around Africa.
