Directions: In the following question, different parts of a sentence/passage have been jumbled. Choose the option that represents the best sequence to make the sentence/passage coherent and meaningful. Ignore punctuation marks.
P. The dead bodies of plants and animals
Q: And clean the environment
R: The bacteria help in decomposing
S: And deposit back useful elements into soil, air and water

• A. SPQR
• B. PQRS
• C. RPQS
• D. SRQP
• E. PRQS

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

To determine the correct sequence for the jumbled sentence parts and form a coherent and meaningful statement, we need to logically connect the given sentence fragments. Let's analyze each part:

• R: The bacteria help in decomposing
• P: The dead bodies of plants and animals
• Q: And clean the environment
• S: And deposit back useful elements into soil, air and water

We need a logical sequence of events, so let's start the analysis:

1. The sequence logically begins with R: "The bacteria help in decomposing," as this introduces the main action in the context.
2. Following R, the direct object of decomposition, P: "The dead bodies of plants and animals," comes next, clarifying what is being decomposed.
3. Next, Q: "And clean the environment" logically follows, indicating a consequence of decomposition by bacteria.
4. Finally, S: "And deposit back useful elements into soil, air and water," completes the process by stating the result of decomposition, adding usefulness back into the environment.

This reasoning leads us to the sequence RPQS, as each part logically follows from the previous.

The correctly ordered sentence is: "The bacteria help in decomposing the dead bodies of plants and animals and clean the environment and deposit back useful elements into soil, air and water."
