Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Hawaiian Chain of Islands. Generally, names of geographical areas, such as continents or parts of continents are capitalized, but not always. Here, "Chain of Islands" should be capitalized because the term, used alone, does not designate a geographical region. By contrast, "Hawaiian Islands" is correctly capitalized. Answer A is not the correct choice because it correctly capitalizes the name of a specific geographical area. Answer B is not the correct choice because it correctly capitalizes "Subcontinent" as part of the name of a geographical region. Answer D is not the correct choice because it correctly capitalizes "Desert" when used as part of the name of a geographical region.
