    Answer : Option B

    Explanation :

    Panama Canal is called the "Gateway to the Pacific". The Panama Canal is a short cut between the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. Using the Panama Canal enables shipping to avoid the longer and stormy passage round Cape Horn (the southern tip of South America).
