Lithosphere
Islands and continents are all parts of the Earth's crust or lithosphere, which is the solid outer layer of the planet. They are both landmasses, with islands being surrounded by water and continents being larger and connected to other landmasses.
No, not all islands in the world are part of the seven continents. Islands can be found in oceans and seas, and do not necessarily belong to any specific continent. Some islands are located near continents, while others are located far away from any major landmass.
North America and Asia share parts of Russia, specifically in Siberia, which spans both continents. Additionally, Europe and Asia share parts of Turkey, which is located on both continents.
There are islands on every continent except Antarctica. Some examples include Greenland in North America, Madagascar in Africa, the United Kingdom in Europe, Japan in Asia, Australia in Oceania, and the Galapagos Islands in South America.
Continents are the bigger objects within their given space. Antarctica, Europe, Asia, Africa, North America, South America and Australia are the Major Continents of the World. Of these, Australia is both a continent and a Nation, with no other counties on it. All the other six have many nations on them. In short, countries, which are political divisions are parts of continents.
Africa and Europe are the only continents that are situated in all four hemispheres: Northern, Southern, Eastern, and Western hemispheres.
The larger parts are called continents, the smaller parts are called islands.
Some Islands are parts of continents (high points in the continental shelf) eg The British Isles. Some Islands are parts of continents that have become detached during continental drift (eg Seychelles or Madagascar) Some Islands are unrelated to continents and result from oceanic plate processes (eg Hawaii). Some Islands are a result of the interaction between continental and oceanic plates (eg some of the Caribbean Islands, Japan and Cyprus).

The Sun has no solid parts - it is all extremely hot gasses, so there are no continents.
North America and Asia share parts of Russia, specifically in Siberia, which spans both continents. Additionally, Europe and Asia share parts of Turkey, which is located on both continents.
There are islands on every continent except Antarctica. Some examples include Greenland in North America, Madagascar in Africa, the United Kingdom in Europe, Japan in Asia, Australia in Oceania, and the Galapagos Islands in South America.

lithosphere Islands and continents are usually found in areas that have been surrounded by a large mass of water.
The continents are Antarctica, Australia, parts of South America, and parts of Africa. Asia could be added to this list as well, if one counts the Indonesian islands as part of Asia. Only Antarctica and Australia lie wholly in the Southern Hemisphere.
