Which option correctly highlights the number of islands that have Komodo dragons?

• A. All twenty-nine islands have Komodo dragons.
• B. Only four of the twenty-nine islands in Komodo National Park have Komodo dragons living on them.
• C. Exactly one island has Komodo dragons.
• D. None of the islands have Komodo dragons.

Answer: (B)

Komodo dragons don’t inhabit every island in the park; their range is limited to a small subset of habitats that can support them. In Komodo National Park, which contains 29 islands, the dragons live on four of them. This specific distribution—four islands hosting dragons out of twenty-nine total—matches what researchers observe and is why this option is the best choice. The other statements contradict known facts: dragons are not on all islands, they’re not restricted to just one island, and they’re not absent from the park entirely. The four inhabited islands are typically listed as Komodo, Rinca, Padar, and Gili Motang.
