Answer 1

The correct option is B 1, 4, 3, 2

A bulb will light up within fraction of a second.

Bursting of crackers is a slightly slower process than glowing of a bulb.

Boiling of water is a little bit slower process than bursting of crackers. It can take upto few minutes to start boiling.

Germination of a seed is a slow and irreversible process because it takes few days to months to germinate.

Therefore, the correct order is: 1< 4< 3< 2
