Explanation
The Comoros archipelago (off south-east Africa) lies on the African Plate; Baffin Island (Canada) on the North American Plate; Sri Lanka on the Indo-Australian Plate; and the Andaman Islands on the remaining listed plate. The correct code is therefore 2 1 4 3. Tectonic plates are rigid lithospheric slabs whose boundaries host most earthquakes and volcanoes.
