Option 2 : SPRQ
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. SPRQ.
While arranging the parts of the sentence given in options, we have to find some grammatical or contextual connections between them, so let’s find out-
- Sentence 1 gives an introduction about the northeastern region. S starts with 'it' and refers to the region mentioned in sentence 1. Hence, S follows sentence 1.
- Next is P as S talks about rainfall and P further gives details about this topic.
- R follows P as it refers to the 'uneven distribution of rainfall' that is mentioned in P.
- Last is Q as it as 6 talks about the temperature so Q must be preceding sentence 6.
Sentences after rearrangement-
The northeastern region presents a diverse system of habitats, ranging from tropical rainforests to alpine meadows. It is largely a humid tropical region with two periods of rainfall; the winter rains come from the west and the summer rains are brought by the monsoon winds. In eastern Himalayas the rainfall ranges from 125 to 300 cms, in Assam from 178 to 305 cms. The uneven distribution affects the region in two opposite ways, floods and droughts. The temperature in the region varies with location, elevation,topography, rainfall and humidity. The winter temperature in Shillong, for example, varies from 4°C to 24°C; in Gangtok, from 9°C to 23°C.
