The Correct Option is C

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: The task is to arrange the words in lexicographical (alphabetical) order, and the pattern is that each next term is at the gap of the sum of gaps of the first two continuous terms. 
Step 2: Let's first sort the words in dictionary order: 
- ``Flunchers" comes before ``Flunching" because ``e" comes before ``i". 
- ``Flunching" comes before ``Fluntlock" as ``c" comes before ``t". 
- ``Fluntlock" comes before ``Fluntlocks" as ``s" comes after ``k". 
- ``Flunpites" comes last due to the length and alphabetical order. 
Thus, the correct order is 5, 1, 3, 2, 4, which corresponds to option (C). 
Thus, the correct answer is option (C) 5, 1, 3, 2, 4.
