In the following question, two columns are given, containing three phrases each. A phrase from the first column may or may not connect with a phrase from the second column to make a grammatically and contextually correct sentence. There are five options, four of which display the sequence(s) in which the phrases can be joined to form a correct sentence. If none of the phrases make a correct sentence, mark ‘None of these’ as your answer.
Column (1) |
Column (2) |
(A) Even though Nebraska Man was a short lived "missing link", it |
(D) must be verified and tested by outside scientists in order to prove its veracity. |
(B) While scientists clamor to find bones of ancient human ancestors to add to the fossil record; |

(C) This is a basic tenet of science where discoveries of a scientific nature |
(F) tells of a very important lesson to paleontologists and archaeologists working in the field. |
Let's join the sentences to give a contextually and grammatically meaningful sentence.
The correct sequences are:$
A talks about 'missing link', which can make meaningful sentence with D.and F. So, A-D and A-F$
B and E both talk about fossils. So, B-E$
C talks about discoveries, which is related to scientists in D. So, C-D$
Out of these, only A-D and A-F $are expressed in the given options.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 3.
