Correct:
A
Explanation
The correct matching of European rivers to their respective mouths is as follows: The Danube, Europe's second-longest river, flows eastward and empties into the Black Sea via the Danube Delta. The Rhine flows through Germany and the Netherlands, eventually emptying into the North Sea [1]. The Rhone, a major river in southern France, flows southwards and discharges into the Mediterranean Sea, specifically forming a delta in the Gulf of Lion. The Loire, the longest river in France, flows westward and drains into the Bay of Biscay. Therefore, the correct sequence for A-B-C-D is 2 (Black Sea), 1 (North Sea), 4 (Mediterranean Sea), and 3 (Bay of Biscay). This corresponds to Option 1.
