This pair is incorrectly matched because Krakatoa is located in Indonesia, not Malaysia. It sits in the Sunda Strait. The other pairs—Fujiyama in Japan, Etna in Italy and Mount Popa (an extinct volcano) in Myanmar—are all geographically and geologically correct. ANSWER: (B) Krakatoa – Malaysia

  1. Indonesia is home to the most active volcanoes in the world, including Krakatoa, whereas Malaysia is relatively stable with very little volcanic activity. The confusion often arises due to their proximity in Southeast Asia. Mount Popa is a well-known landmark in central Myanmar, considered a sacred site and a “dead” volcano. Etna and Fujiyama are the most iconic peaks of their respective countries. Identifying the correct location of Krakatoa is fundamental in geography due to its massive impact on global climate and historical tsunami records.
