The dissolution of the assembly/ in the state which was (P)/ was followed by a prolonged (Q)/ already marred with political instability (R)/ tug of war for seizing the power (S)

A) RSPQ B) QSRP
C) PSRQ D) PRQS
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) PRQS

Explanation:

Clearly, R and S can't follow the first segment. This eliminates option 1.

Option 2: It is incorrect since P ends with was, which can't be used to end the statement.

Option 3: It is incorrect since the statement can't end in 'by a prolonged'.

Option 4: It makes a coherent statement; hence put it on hold.

Option 5: It is incorrect because P ends in 'was' and Q begins with 'was'.

Two 'was' can't be used together. Hence, the correct sequence is PRQS.

A) PRSQ B) SRPQ
C) PQRS D) QSRP
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) PRSQ

Explanation:

'an' at the end of the first fixed segment indicates that Q, R and S can't follow the first segment. This leaves us with only one choice i.e. P. This eliminates options 2, 4, and 5.

There are only two such options: option A1and 3. Option 3 can be eliminated since part S ends with 'the' which can't be used as the end of the master statement. Hence, the correct sequence is PRSQ
