Answer
Correct Answer: c, f, b, a, d, e
Explanation
Introduction / Context:This sequencing problem tracks cotton textiles from agricultural beginnings to worn-out fabric.
Given Data / Assumptions:
- c = Soil supports crops.
- f = Plant (cotton plant grows).
- b = Cotton (harvested fibre).
- a = Thread (spun yarn from cotton).
- d = Cloth (woven/knitted fabric).
- e = Rag (end-of-life fabric piece).
Concept / Approach:Use supply-chain dependencies: environment → crop → fibre → yarn → fabric → waste/rag.
Step-by-Step Solution:
Soil (c) → Plant (f).Plant (f) → Cotton (b).Cotton (b) → Thread (a).Thread (a) → Cloth (d).Cloth (d) → Rag (e).Verification / Alternative check:Any reversal (e.g., cloth before thread) breaks manufacturing order.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
- Orders starting with cotton/plant before soil ignore agricultural prerequisite.
- Options ending with plant rather than rag ignore lifecycle end.
Common Pitfalls:Confusing fibre (cotton) with yarn (thread); yarn is spun from fibre.
Final Answer:c, f, b, a, d, e
