The correct answer is option 4, Chile. Chile is not a member of MERCOSUR (Southern Common Market).

Let`s analyze the other options to understand why they are not the correct answer:

- Option 1: Argentina is a member of MERCOSUR. Argentina was one of the founding members of the organization in 1991.

- Option 2: Paraguay is a member of MERCOSUR. Paraguay also joined as a founding member in 1991.

- Option 3: Uruguay is a member of MERCOSUR. Uruguay joined MERCOSUR in 1991, along with Argentina and Paraguay.

Now, let`s discuss option 4:

- Option 4: Chile is not a member of MERCOSUR. Although Chile is a South American country, it is not a member of MERCOSUR. Chile is, however, a member of another regional trade organization called the Pacific Alliance, which includes countries like Mexico and Colombia.

In conclusion, while Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay are members of MERCOSUR, Chile is not a member of this regional trade organization.
