An archipelago is a group or chain of islands clustered together in a sea or ocean. Here’s the classification for each option:
A. Indonesia: This is an archipelago consisting of over 17,000 islands.
B. Maldives: This is an archipelago consisting of around 1,200 small coral islands grouped in atolls.
C. Korea: This is not an archipelago. Korea refers to the Korean Peninsula, which consists of North Korea and South Korea and is not a group of islands.
D. Japan: This is an archipelago consisting of 6,852 islands.
Thus, Korea is not an archipelago.
The correct answer to the question: "Which one of the following is not an archipelago?" is "Korea".
