Answer and explanation
Correct Answer: A: Australia
Explanation: The correct answer is Australia, which covers approximately 7.7 million square kilometers. Australia is also considered an island, and is home to a unique set of flora and fauna. Options like Antarctica and Europe are incorrect because Antarctica is an ice-covered continent and Europe is a part of the larger Eurasian landmass. Australia is also home to the world's largest coral reef system, the Great Barrier Reef. This geographical fact is often tested in FPSC, CSS, and NTS exams to assess basic knowledge of continents.
