For many scientists, oceans are the cradle of life.
(a) But all over the world, chemical products and nuclear waste continue to be dumped into them.
(b) Coral reefs, which are known to be the most beautiful places of the submarine world, are fast disappearing.
(c) The result is that many species of fish die because of this pollution.
(d) Of course man is the root cause behind these problems.

• B. BACD
• C. ABDC
• D. BCAD

Hint:

When arranging cause-effect sequences, place the cause first, then effects, followed by specific examples and the ultimate source.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

A describes the pollution problem.
C follows with its consequence — death of fish species.
B adds a specific example of damage: disappearing coral reefs.
D concludes by identifying man as the root cause.
Hence, ACBD is the logical sequence.
