Disaster sequence — arrange monsoon-related events and actions into a meaningful order: a) Rain, b) Monsoon, c) Rescue, d) Flood, e) Shelter, f) Relief.

Difficulty: Easy

Correct Answer: b, a, d, c, e, f

Explanation:


Introduction / Context:
Monsoon seasons often bring heavy rain that can cause flooding. Disaster response typically follows a recognizable pattern: the hazard develops, consequences occur, then emergency actions and humanitarian support follow. This question compresses that storyline into six tokens you must order coherently.



Given Data / Assumptions:

  • Hazard driver: Monsoon (b) leading to Rain (a).
  • Impact: Flood (d).
  • Immediate response: Rescue (c).
  • Support measures: Shelter (e) and Relief (f).


Concept / Approach:
First, the seasonal driver (monsoon) sets the context for heavy rainfall, which may escalate into floods. Emergency services conduct rescues to save lives. After evacuation and safety, authorities and NGOs provide temporary Shelter and continuing Relief (food, medicine, sanitation). Thus the chain is Monsoon → Rain → Flood → Rescue → Shelter → Relief.



Step-by-Step Solution:
1) Monsoon (b) triggers seasonal conditions.2) Rain (a) increases water loads.3) Flood (d) as the adverse event.4) Rescue (c) to save and evacuate.5) Shelter (e) to house displaced people.6) Relief (f) to sustain them afterward.Hence: b, a, d, c, e, f.



Verification / Alternative check:
Rescue cannot precede flood impact; shelter and relief are logically subsequent to rescue operations.



Why Other Options Are Wrong:

  • a, b, d, e, c, f: Puts rain before monsoon and shelter before rescue.
  • a, b, c, d, e, f: Starts rescue before flood, which is illogical.
  • d, a, b, c, f, e: Begins with flood before seasonal drivers and misplaces support steps.


Common Pitfalls:
Mixing up preparedness vs response. Here we model response after impact (rescue → shelter → relief).



Final Answer:
b, a, d, c, e, f
