Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer to each question out of the four alternatives. Genetic variation is the cornerstone of evolution, without which there can be no natural selection, and so a low genetic diversity decreases the ability of a species to survive and reproduce, explains lead author Yoshan Moodley, Professor at the Department of Zoology, University of Venda in South Africa. Two centuries ago, the black rhinoceros – which roamed much of sub Saharan Africa – had 64 different genetic lineages; but today only 20 of these lineages remain, says the paper. The species is now restricted to five countries, South Africa, Namibia, Kenya, Zimbabwe and Tanzania. Genetically unique populations that once existed in Nigeria, Cameroon, Chad, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Somalia, Mozambique, Malawi and Angola have disappeared. The origins of the 'genetic erosion' coincided with colonial rule in Africa and the popularity of big game hunting. From the second half of the 20th century, however, poaching for horns has dramatically depleted their population and genetic diversity, especially in Kenya and Tanzania.

The following sentences form a paragraph. The first and the last sentences of the paragraph are given. The rest of the sentences are numbered as P, Q, R and S. These four parts are not given in their proper order. Read the sentences and choose the alternative that arranges them in the correct order. 1. Sexual favouritism and gender partiality/discrimination are often similarly perceived. P. At the workplace, when romance involves sexual favouritism, it is important to comprehend the cause and extent of the presence of such favouritism i.e. whether this favouritism can give way to other employees (who are not directly involved in the illicit relationship) for claiming themselves as the victims of sexual harassment. Q. However, many critics have befittingly differentiated the two. R. This concludes that sexual favouritism and gender partiality bear both direct and indirect implications for employees.  S. They delineate that sexual favouritism entangles the discerning grant of a gain or opportunity at the workplace; in contrast, sexual partiality/discrimination usually involves the restraining of benefits or opportunities dependent upon an individual's gender. 6. Whether favouritism on the basis of sex remains a legitimate shape of discrimination, or whether sexual favouritism stretches to the extent of a restricted form of sexual partiality, is an important question which can only be answered through comprehending the definition of sexual harassment.
