Verified Answer
A. Neither 1 nor 2
B. Both 1 and 2
C. Only 2
D. Only 1
Explanation:
Statement 1 is true: Borneo Island is divided among three countries: Indonesia (Kalimantan), Malaysia (Sarawak and Sabah), and Brunei. Statement 2 is false: Borneo is primarily a continental island, not formed by volcanic deposition. Its geology is complex, but large-scale volcanic activity is not its primary formation mechanism. Therefore, only statement 1 is true.
