Concept/Grammar rules

Application

 Sentence C is the introductory sentence of the passage as it mentions the subject i.e. ‘coniferous trees’.

Sentence B should follow sentence C because it further elaborates that due to the presence of coniferous trees, Canada has been an exporter of forest products.

Sentence D should be the third sentence as it lists important forest products.

Finally, sentence A concludes the passage.

Therefore, option 3 i.e. CBDA is the correct sequence.
