Correct Answer
3 → 1 → 4 → 2
Explanation
To arrange the steps into a logical sentence sequence, the actions must follow the natural chronological order of farming and plant growth.
3 (The farmer ploughed the field) must happen first to prepare the soil.
1 (He sowed the seeds) follows next once the ground is ready.
4 (He watered the seeds sown in the field) is the subsequent action needed to trigger germination.
2 (The sprouts began to appear) is the final biological result of the watering and sowing process.
This chronological order creates the correct sequence: 3 → 1 → 4 → 2.
