The question below consists of a set of labelled sentences. Out of the four options given, select the most logical order of the sentences to form a coherent paragraph. P: Intense heating of the ground creates convection currents. Q: Dust storms are caused by strong winds that travel over dry, arid land with little vegetation and pick up tiny particles such as sand, dust and other debris. R: The air over the ground becomes hot and rises and the vacuum it creates is filled by cooler winds, resulting in a storm. S: In arid areas, the storm picks up sand and loose soil, which are light and thus travel fast with it.

S: In arid areas, the storm picks up sand and loose soil, which are light and thus travel fast with it. Correct Answer QPRS

The passage tells us about the formation of dust storms.

The sentence P would be followed by R. Sentence R says 'The air over the ground becomes hot', which is a further elaboration of the 'intense heating of the ground' mentioned in sentence P.

Sentence R is logically followed by sentence S. Sentence S talks about 'the storm' mentioned in sentence R.

Leaving only sentence Q to be arranged. Putting sentence Q as the last sentence of the arrangement doesn't make any sense and therefore sentence Q becomes the first sentence of the arrangement. It also introduces the subject of the passage and therefore becomes the introductory sentence.

Therefore, the correct order would be QPRS.

Riparian vegetation [the green band of vegetation along a watercourse] can help stabilize stream banks; filter sediment from surface runoff; and provide wildlife habitat, livestock forage,and scenic value. Well-developed vegetation also allows bank soils to absorb extra water during spring runoff, releasing it later during drier months, thus improving late-summer stream flows. In many parts of the arid West, trees and shrubs are found only in riparian areas. Woody plants are very important as winter cover for many wildlife species, including upland game birds such as pheasants and turkeys. Often this winter cover is the greatest single factor limiting game bird populations. Woody vegetation also provides hiding cover and browse for many other species of birds and mammals, both game and nongame. Dead trees ("snags") are an integral part of streamside habitats and should be left standing whenever possible. Woodpeckers, nuthatches, brown creepers, and other birds eat the insects that decompose the wood. These insects usually pose no threat to nearby living trees. Occasionally a disease organism or misuse of pesticides will weaken or kill a stand of trees. If several trees in a small area begin to die, contact your local extension agent immediately .

Crude mineral oil comes out of the earth as a thick brown or black liquid with a strong smell. It is a complex mixture of many different substances, each with its own individual qualities. Most of them are combinations of hydrogen and carbon in varying proportions. Such hydrocarbons are also found in other forms such as bitumen, asphalt and natural gas. Mineral oil originates from the carcasses of tiny animals and from plants that live in the sea. Over million of years, these dead creatures form large deposits under sea­bed and ocean currents cover them with a blanket of sand and silt. As this material hardens, it becomes sedimentary rock and effectively shuts out the oxygen, thus preventing the complete decomposition of the marine deposits underneath. The layers of sedimentary rocks become thicker, and heavier. Their pressure produces heat, which transforms the tiny carcasses into crude oil in a process that is still going on today.
How does crude oil come out of the earth ?
