Which of the following tribes are inhabitants of the Andaman and the Nicobar Islands ? 1. Onge 2. Jarawa 3. Sentinalese Select the correct answer using the codes given below:

The Andaman and Nicobar Islands are home to several indigenous tribal groups. The Onge (or Onges) primarily inhabit the Little Andaman Island and are known for their hunting and gathering lifestyle [t1][t2]. The Jarawa (also known as Angs) reside in parts of South and Middle Andaman and are considered one of the most endangered tribes globally [c1][t6]. The Sentinelese are the most isolated group, inhabiting the North Sentinel Island; they remain largely hostile to outside contact and maintain a Paleolithic lifestyle [t1][t2]. These three tribes, along with the Great Andamanese, belong to the Negrito racial stock and are concentrated in the Andaman group of islands [t4][t8]. In contrast, the Nicobar group is home to the Nicobarese and Shompen tribes, who are of Mongoloid origin [t4][t8]. Therefore, all three listed tribes are inhabitants of the archipelago.
