Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e., RPQS.
- Sentence R is the opening statement as it tells about the topic of the paragraph i.e., e- waste.
- Sentence P is the second sentence as it tells the meaning of e-waste and sentence Q is the third sentence as it is related to P in terms of content because a conjunction is used in the beginning of sentence Q.
- Sentence S is the last and the concluding sentence which states the reason of increasing e-waste.
