Q1. Which one of the following water bodies separates the Andaman Islands from the Nicobar Islands?
Explanation
The 10° Channel lies between Little Andaman and Car Nicobar, separating the Andaman group from the Nicobar group. The Gulf of Mannar is between south-eastern India and Sri Lanka, so it is unrelated to this island division. The 5° Channel lies farther south, near the southern end of the Nicobar region. The Arabian Sea is on India’s western side and does not separate the Andaman and Nicobar island groups.
