What bodies of water surround Canada?

  1. Baltic Sea, Red Sea and Black Sea

  2. Indian Ocean, Southern Ocean and North Sea

  3. Pacific Ocean, Atlantic Ocean and Arctic Ocean

  4. Caribbean Sea, Mediterranean Sea and Gulf of Mexico

The correct answer is: Pacific Ocean, Atlantic Ocean and Arctic Ocean

The most suitable options for this answer are ones that are geographically closest to Canada. The Pacific Ocean, which is to the west of Canada, the Atlantic Ocean, lying to the east of Canada, and the Arctic Ocean, which borders the northern coast of Canada, are the most appropriate bodies of water that surround Canada. The other options listed are not geographically close to Canada and therefore, are not correct. The Baltic Sea, Red Sea, Black Sea, Indian Ocean, Southern Ocean, North Sea, Caribbean Sea, Mediterranean Sea, and Gulf of Mexico are located in different parts of the world and are not considered bodies of water that surround Canada.
