Answer 1

The correct answer is b. Central America.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Panama Canal is a man-made waterway in Panama that connects the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean, cutting across the isthmus of Panama in Central America. The canal allows ships to avoid the much longer and more dangerous trip around the southern tip of South America, saving time and resources.
