Answer:

Beringia, is the right answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Beringia is the area and marine zone between the Rivers Lena and Mackenzie of Russia and Canada respectively.

Historically, it developed a land bridge around 1,000 kilometres wide at its largest area and comprised a range as extended as British Alberta and Columbia together. Eric Hultén in the year 1937 coined this term Beringia.
