• A. PSQR
• B. SPRQ
• C. RQSP
• D. QPRS
• E. QSRP

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

To solve the problem of rearranging the jumbled parts of a sentence to form a coherent and meaningful passage, we need to analyze each part individually and determine their logical sequence. The jumbled sentence parts are:

• P: Telescope arrays in the Northern and Southern hemispheres
• Q: In Leh for an international collaboration that is
• R: India plans to offer an astronomical site at Hanle
• S: Exploring the possibility of setting up two large gamma-ray

Let's analyze the parts:

1. R: "India plans to offer an astronomical site at Hanle" – This logically starts the sentence as it introduces the subject, India, and what it plans to do.
2. Q: "In Leh for an international collaboration that is" – This part provides additional context to the offering, specifying the location (Leh) and that it is for an international collaboration.
3. S: "Exploring the possibility of setting up two large gamma-ray" – This part continues from Q, describing what the collaboration is about (exploring the possibility of setting up gamma-ray telescope arrays).
4. P: "Telescope arrays in the Northern and Southern hemispheres" – This completes the context by specifying that the telescope arrays will be in the Northern and Southern hemispheres.

Thus, the correct sequence is RQSP, which forms the coherent passage: "India plans to offer an astronomical site at Hanle in Leh for an international collaboration that is exploring the possibility of setting up two large gamma-ray telescope arrays in the Northern and Southern hemispheres."

This sequence correctly aligns with the stated correct answer.
