Last updated Jun 19, 2026
Correct Answer: Option C — II-I-III-IV
Here is why this sequence forms the most logical paragraph:

II introduces the main topic and states a broad fact (Bees are essential for biodiversity and food production).

I expands on why they are essential, linking directly to the "food production" mentioned in the previous sentence (They are responsible for pollinating many plants).

III introduces a problem using a contrasting transition word (However, their population has been steadily declining).

IV finishes the thought by explaining the cause of that decline (The major reasons for this are habitat loss and pesticides).

Full Paragraph:

"Bees are essential for biodiversity and food production. They are responsible for pollinating many plants. However, their population has been steadily declining. The major reasons for this are habitat loss and pesticides."
