(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.
