macOS boot entry disappeared after trying to re-partition through Disk Utility

[huijkkkk97]

If you see, there is no option to delete the volume. Try to format the Untitled Volume as APFS. Quit Disk Utility, open it again and provide a screenshot.

As far as I know (by googling), I can't actually resize my macOS partition because it's the "last" of the disk.
