Explanation:

To identify the isthmus, we use the definition: a narrow strip of land with water on each side, connecting two larger landmasses.

• The first image shows a peninsula (land surrounded by water on three sides, connected to a larger landmass on one side).
• The second image shows a narrow strip of land (the Isthmus of Panama) with water on both sides, connecting North and South America.
• The third image shows an island (completely surrounded by water, not connecting two larger lands).

So the middle image is the isthmus.

Answer:

The middle image (showing the narrow strip of land connecting two larger landmasses with water on both sides) is the isthmus.
