C) R Q P S	D) P Q S R

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) S R P Q

Explanation:

The starting statement is talking about the scientific description of dinosaurs i.e. Iguanodon. The connecting statement would be the statement describing the physical structure. So, S would be the next statement as it describes the length of the dinosaurs. So, S being the first statement eliminates all other options. Thus, the correct sequence is SRPQ.
