Q:

The leader of the opposition, (in the manner he had planned to convince them,on) P (realising that he had failed to convince the) Q (assembly,who had a reputation for speech) R (making,was very much disappointed) S

The correct sequence should be

A) P S R Q B) Q S R P
C) R S Q P D) S P R Q
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) R S Q P

Explanation:

Since, the sentence starts talking about the leader of the opposition, the connecting statement will be R as it carries a relative pronoun ‘who’ which relates the sentences. S follows as it states the disappointment of the leader and the next statement talked about the reason of disappointment. P would be the concluding statement as it goes with the flow describing how the leader decided to convince the assembly and thus makes a coherent paragraph.

The correct formation would be, ‘The leader of the opposition who had a reputation for speech making was very much disappointed on realising that he had failed to convince the assembly in the manner he had planned to convince them’.

It's nothing short of a revolution in how we eat, and it's getting closer every day. Yes, a lot of people are obese, and yes, the definition of "healthy eating" seems to change all the time. But in labs and research centres around the world, scientists are racing to match our genes and our taste buds, creating the perfect diet for each of us, a diet that will fight disease, increase longevity, boost physical and mental performance, and taste great to boot. As food scientist J.Bruce German says, "The foods we like the most will be the most healthy for us."

Is that going to be a great day, or what?

All this will come to pass, thanks to genomics, the science that maps and describes an individual's genetic code. In the future, personalized DNA chips will allow us to assess our own inherited predispositions for certain diseases, then adjust our diets accordingly. So, if you're at risk for heart disease, you won't just go on a generic low-fat diet. You'll eat foods with just the right amount and type of fat that's best for you. You'll even be able to track your metabolism day-to-day to determine what foods you should eat at any given time, for any given activity. "Since people differ in their genetics and metabolism, one diet won't fit all," says German. As complex as all this sounds, it could turn out to be relatively simple.

What will be possible in the future?

A) Personalised DNA chips for people to assess their own inherited predispositions B) You are at great risk for heart disease
C) You will not be able to determine what food you should eat D) You will be unable to adjust your diet
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Personalised DNA chips for people to assess their own inherited predispositions
