Answer 1

The Antarctic Ocean doesn't cross the equator.

Answer - Antarctic Ocean (Option B)

Explanation:

• The world’s three major oceans – the Pacific, Atlantic, and the Indian Oceans cross through the equator.
• The other two major oceans – the arctic and the Antarctic Oceans do not cross the equator because of their location at the north and the south poles respectively.
• The Antarctic Ocean also known the Southern or the Austral Ocean. It encircles the Antarctic continent at $60^{\circ} \mathrm{S}$ latitude in the southern hemisphere.
