Solution

The correct option is D Huge M

The Indian Ocean is the only ocean to be named after a country. Its shape is roughly triangular. The Indian Ocean is bound in the north by the continent of Asia. India lies at the head of this ocean. The Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal are two northward extensions of the Indian Ocean. To the east of this ocean lies Australia and to the west lies Africa. In the south, it merges with the Atlantic and the Pacific oceans.

The shape of the Indian Ocean can be described as a huge letter 'M. '
