Para-jumble (sentence arrangement): Arrange P–Q–R–S to complete the zoology paragraph about ants and their prey. S1 = "Ants eat worms, centipedes, and spiders." P = "They are usually much quicker than the ant itself." Q = "Nevertheless, these animals do not make easy game for ants." R = "Besides, they have an extraordinary number of ways of escaping." S = "They also eat larvae and insect adults such as flies, moths, and springtails." S6 = "Some jump, and some give out a pungent repellent substance." Between S1 and S6, place P–Q–R–S to explain diet first, then difficulties in hunting. Choose the correct sequence of P–Q–R–S that completes the paragraph.

Difficulty: Easy

Correct Answer: SQPR

Explanation:


Given data

  • S1 states some prey; S widens diet to other insects.
  • Q introduces a concessive difficulty.
  • P explains one reason (speed); R adds more escape methods, leading to S6 examples.


Concept/Approach
Diet → challenge → reasons for challenge → examples.


Step-by-step reasoning
Open with S to complete the diet list. Use Q to concede that prey are not easy to catch. Add P (prey are quicker) and R (many escape tactics).


Final Answer
SQPR
