1.BACD
2.BDCA
3.BCAD
4.DABC
Correct Answer : 2
Solution :
Sentences B and D form a pair BD as sentence B introduces green anacondas to be one of the largest snakes in the world, and sentence D mentions the figures regarding its size.
Sentences C and A also form a pair CA as sentence C mentions the common myth about the anacondas that they are poisonous and sentence A busts that myth.
Only in option (b), both pairs have been mentioned.
So, the correct order is BDCA.
Hence, option (b) is the answer.
