Explanation
The incorrectly matched pair is Masai - West Africa. The correct habitats for the tribes mentioned are:
- Bushman (San): Indigenous hunter-gatherers of the Kalahari Desert in Southern Africa (Botswana, Namibia, and South Africa).
- Eskimo (Inuit): Inhabit the circumpolar Arctic regions, including Northern Canada, Alaska, and Greenland.
- Pygmy: Various ethnic groups living in the tropical rainforests of the Congo Basin in Central Africa.
- Masai (Maasai): A Nilotic ethnic group inhabiting the Great Lakes region and savannas of East Africa, primarily in Kenya and northern Tanzania. They are not found in West Africa.
Since only statement 4 is incorrect, the correct option is A.
