The correct answer is Option 2: I-B, II-C, III-A, IV-D.
This option correctly matches List I (Oceanic Trench) with List II (Location). Specifically:
I-B matches "Aleutian" with "North Pacific Ocean". The Aleutian Trench is indeed located in the North Pacific Ocean near the Aleutian Islands.
II-C matches "Kermadec" with "South Pacific Ocean". The Kermadec Trench is found in the South Pacific Ocean off the coast of New Zealand.
III-A matches "Sunda" with "Indian Ocean". The Sunda Trench, also known as the Java Trench, is located in the Indian Ocean.
IV-D matches "S. Sandwich" with "South Atlantic Ocean". The South Sandwich Trench is in the South Atlantic Ocean near the South Sandwich Islands.
The other options provide incorrect pairings of these trenches and their respective locations. Therefore, answer 2: I-B, II-C, III-A, IV-D is correct.
