Answer 2

Answer:

All of the given are names of European islands except Jutland.

Explanation:

• For a piece of land to be recognized as an island, it has to be covered by water on all the sides.

• Jutland is not exactly an island, rather, it is a peninsula that forms a part of the mainland Denmark covered by water on three sides.

• Iceland, Ireland, and Sicily are pieces of land that completely fulfill the definition of an island and are thus identified as islands.
