Correct:
B
Explanation
The correctly matched pairs are:
- I. Kharg Island: It is an Iranian island located in the Persian Gulf. It serves as a primary maritime terminal for Iran's oil exports.
- II. Vaan Island: It is one of the 21 islands in the Gulf of Mannar Marine National Park, Tamil Nadu, India. It has been in the news due to ecological restoration efforts to prevent it from submerging.
The incorrectly matched pairs are:
- III. Tuti Island: It is a famous river island located at the confluence of the White Nile and Blue Nile in Khartoum, Sudan. It is not located in the Red Sea.
- IV. Qeshm Island: It is the largest island in the Persian Gulf (Iran), situated in the Strait of Hormuz. It is not part of the Arabian Sea.
Since only two pairs (I and II) are correct, the answer is B.
