Answer 1

Answer: (A)

P-Q-S-R

The first statement in the sequence should be the one that best connects with S1. It should be a continuation or extension of S1.

P is first in the sequence: S1 says that clothes should fit well. P provides support to S1. It says clothes should fit well because if they are too slack then they chafe the skin and are uncomfortable.

P is followed by Q: Q further adds to P. It says that tight garments can constrict the organs of the body, especially those of the abdomen.

Q is followed by S: S continues Q's point. It says that if clothes are too tight they can constrict the blood vessels in the skin.

S is followed by R: R introduces a sub-topic. It says clothes should be kept clean. S6 continues R's point. It says that clothes should be kept clean as they absorb sweat from the body and pick up dust from the surroundings.

Thus, the correct sequence is P Q S R. Hence, A is the correct option.
