Answer 1
Nehemiah 9:9-11, Psalm 106:7-10, Psalm 136:13-15, Hebrews 11:29 and many other scriptures name the Red Sea as the place where God used Moses to miraculously lead the Israelites to safety from Egypt. The body of water would have had to be deep enough for the Egyptians to be 'swallowed up' or 'drowned'(Hebrews 11:29 RSV) by 'deep waters' and go "down into the depths like a stone" (Exodus 15:5 KJV).
Answer 2
The term Red Sea is consistent in English translations, but the Biblical term in Hebrew is Yam Suf (ים סוף) which means "Sea of Reeds". While it would certainly be more epic if Moses split the Red Sea as opposed to a small tidal reed-filled lake (of which several are situated in west Sinai), it would seem to accord better with the name of the body of water.
As to whether the parting of the Red Sea really happened, over 90 per cent of scholars are reported to believe that the Exodus from Egypt never happened as described in the Bible. Without an Exodus, there was no parting of the Red Sea or, for that matter, any sea at all.

Moses was/is unable, as the power of the Lord is what parted the Red Sea. Just read over the texts and you will get it.
Moses The Crossing of the Red Sea forms an episode in the biblical narrative of The Exodus. It tells of the escape of the Israelites, led by Moses, from the pursuing Egyptians, as recounted in the Book of Exodus. Moses holds out his staff and God parts the waters of the Yam Suph. The Israelites walk through on the dry ground and cross the sea, followed by the Egyptian army. Once the Israelites have safely crossed Moses lifts his arms again, the sea closes, and the Egyptians are drowned.
So the Hebrews could escape the pursuing Egyptian Army.
