General KnowledgeGeography
- A1, 2, 3, 4
- B1, 2, 4, 3
- C2, 1, 4, 3
- D2, 1, 3, 4
Explanation
From north to south, the ranges are arranged as follows: the Kunlun lies northernmost, then the Karakoram, then the Ladakh range, and finally the Zaskar range closest to the Himalayan front. The correct north-to-south sequence is therefore 2 (Kunlun), 1 (Karakoram), 3 (Ladakh), 4 (Zaskar). The Zaskar lies closest to the Great Himalayan front, while the Kunlun forms the northern rim of the Tibetan plateau.
