Correct Answer: Bass
Solution : The correct option is - Bass.
The Australian mainland and the island state of Tasmania are separated by Bass Strait. The strait is the only maritime entry point into the economically significant Port Phillip Bay and offers the most direct waterway between the Great Australian Bight and the Tasman Sea. The strait was created 8,000 years ago as a result of the last glacial period's ending sea level rise. European colonists gave the strait the name Bass after the English explorer and physician George Bass.
