Mapmakers in the Northern Hemisphere and geographers rarely acknowledge the existence of the Southern Ocean, the fourth largest of the world's five, which surrounds Antarctica. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the thirds option or option "C". I hope this helps you.

The ocean is only larger than the Arctic ocean. Some scientists do not recognize the Southern Ocean as an entity in its self but rather an extension of the Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian oceans. Proponents of the Southern Ocean refer to the significance circulation of waters in the southern latitudes to warrant it being named a separate ocean.
The continuous process in which hot, molten material coming to the surface of the Earth from the interior forms igneous rocks, which are then broken down by weathering to create soil and sedimentary rocks.
