Correct Answer: Arctic Ocean


Solution : The correct option is the Arctic Ocean.

A section of a continent buried beneath a body of relatively shallow water is referred to as a shelf sea, called a continental shelf. From the coast of Siberia into the Arctic Ocean, the continental shelf in the world stretches about 1,500 km (approximately 930 miles). The largest and deepest ocean in the world is the Pacific Ocean.
