Each of the following items in this section consists of a sentence, the parts of which have been jumbled. These parts have been labelled as P, Q, R and S. Each sentence is followed by four sequences, namely (a), (b), (c) and (d), indicating the rearrangement of the parts. You are required to select the most appropriate option and mark your response on the Answer Sheet accordingly.

- APQSR
- BSQPR
- CPRSQ
- DSRPQ
Explanation
‘P’ will be the first part of the given sequence as per the subject-verb agreement rule, that is,“animals are”. ‘Q’ will come next as ‘passing of the seasons’ is used in terms of ‘able to measure’, that is, it is talking about the ability of animals to measure the passing of the seasons. SR will make a pair together as it states the reason how they are able to measure, that is, by recognising the changes in day-length. Hence, PQSR is the correct sequence. Thus, option (a) is correct.
