Which statement correctly identifies the four parts of the United Kingdom?

Explanation:
The United Kingdom is made up of four constituent countries: England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. That is why the statement listing England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland is the correct one here. The other options miss or misstate parts of the UK: one leaves out Northern Ireland, another claims Northern Ireland isn’t part of the UK, and the last wrongly gives London as Scotland’s capital (London is the capital of the UK and of England; Scotland’s capital is Edinburgh).
