Parts of a sentence are given below in jumbled order. Arrange the parts in the correct order to form a meaningful sentence.

(O) attitude is

(P) or tendency in individuals

(Q) a broad-based behaviour

(R) which implies

(S) a hypothetical postulate

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. OSRQP.

Logical Flow:

  • (O) attitude is – A good starting phrase (subject + verb).

  • (S) a hypothetical postulate – a definition or idea.

  • (R) which implies – This should precede “a hypothetical postulate” (S) because “which implies a hypothetical postulate” is a meaningful clause.

  • (Q) a broad-based behaviour – Attitude is being described.

  • (P) or tendency in individuals – This completes the definition logically.

Correct Sequence: O → S → R → Q → P

Final Sentence/Passage: Attitude is a hypothetical postulate which implies a broad-based behaviour or tendency in individuals.

Hence, the chosen option is the correct one.
