Answer:

All of the given are names of European islands except Jutland.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • For a piece of land to be recognized as an island, it has to be covered by water on all the sides.
  • Jutland is not exactly an island, rather, it is a peninsula that forms a part of the mainland Denmark covered by water on three sides.
  • Iceland, Ireland, and Sicily are pieces of land that completely fulfill the definition of an island and are thus identified as islands.
