D Correct answer
Explanation

The Panama Canal connects the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, serving as a crucial shipping shortcut. Ships passing through it effectively access the Pacific from the Atlantic and vice versa. The Suez Canal connects the Mediterranean and Red Seas, not the Pacific. The Bering Sea and Gulf of Alaska are themselves part of the Pacific region.
