Answer:

The Strait of Gibraltar connects the "Mediterranean Sea" with the Atlantic Ocean.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The "Strait of Gibraltar" is a narrow pass formed at the western end of the "Mediterranean Sea" that connects the sea with the larger Atlantic Ocean.
  • The geographical setting of the African country Morocco and that of the European country Spain favors the formation of the Strait of Gibraltar.
  • It serves as the "only entrance to the Mediterranean Sea" from the "Atlantic Ocean" and vice versa.
