Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

In this sentence the adverb clause is: Although Denmark is located on a peninsula.

The subject of the sentences is country.

The verb is includes.

The adverb is also.

More than 400 islands is a prepositional phrase.

Adverb clauses can modify verbs, but they can also modify adverbs and adjectives, so it is always a good idea to identify the parts of speech of the sentence before deciding which one is modified by the adverb clause.
