B. Even, the baby King Cobra is one-and-a-half foot long when born.
C. It is mostly found in parts of Africa.
D. The Cobra is the only snake that builds a nest.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. BDAC.
B introduces an interesting fact about newborn King Cobras ('Even, the baby King Cobra is one‑and‑a‑half foot long when born'), which is a logical starting point since it's about the beginning of life.
D follows by highlighting a unique behavior ('The Cobra is the only snake that builds a nest'), building from birth to distinctive parental care. This is supported by multiple sources confirming that only the female King Cobra builds and guards a nest for her eggs.
A then states the species’ significance ('The King Cobra is the world’s largest venomous snake'), adding a broader context about its stature.
C closes with its distribution ('It is mostly found in parts of Africa'), though this is factually incorrect—King Cobras are actually native to South and Southeast Asia, not Africa. But given the four sentences to arrange, it fits last.
Why the other options are less logical:
Option 1 (CBAD) starts with distribution, then type, then nest, then species size—this order feels disjointed and unstructured.
Option 2 (BACD) begins with birth size, then species size, then nest behavior, and then incorrect distribution—this shifts abruptly without smooth flow.
Option 4 (ABCD) jumps from general fact to birth size, to (wrong) distribution, then nest behavior—also lacks logical progression.
