Answer 1

To accurately answer the question regarding which body of water arrow four (4) is pointing to, it would be essential to have a visual of the map you referenced, as location and orientation of the arrow would provide significant context.

However, given the bodies of water listed:

A. the Coral Sea
B. the Tasman Sea
C. the Gulf of Carpentaria
D. the Great Australian Bight

Based on general geographic knowledge:

- **Coral Sea** is located to the northeast of Australia.
- **Tasman Sea** is located to the southeast of Australia, between Australia and New Zealand.
- **Gulf of Carpentaria** is located to the northwest of Australia.
- **Great Australian Bight** is located to the south of Australia.

If you can provide any additional information about where the arrow is positioned or the context of the map, I could help you deduce the correct answer better. If you're trying to determine based solely on general geography and which body of water is positioned more towards the central or southern parts of Australia, then the Great Australian Bight (D) could be a likely candidate, depending on what you're referencing.

Please provide more details or context so I can assist you more accurately!
