Answer»

The $Indian Ocean is the third largest of the world's $oceanic divisions, covering 70,560,000 km$2 . $It is bounded by $ASIA on the NORTH, on the WEST by $Africa, on the east by $AUSTRALIA, and on the south by the $SOUTHERN Ocean or, depending on definition, by $Antarctica.$ It is named after $India.$ As stated in the above paragraph, historically and strategically, the northern portion of the Indian Ocean is considered very im­portant because it is accessible from the west and the east only through narrow straits.

Hence the correct answer is option 2.
