Instructions

A number of sentences are given below which, when properly sequenced form a COHERENT PARAGRAPH. Choose the most LOGICAL ORDER of sentences from the choices given to construct a COHERENT PARAGRAPH.

Question 118

I. “It is a clear illustration of the major role played by diet and culture on your risk of chronic disorders,” he says.
II. Little is known about its effects, but changing its levels, possibly through diet or with different gut bacteria, might help to control high blood pressure.
III. Chinese and Japanese people are very similar at a genetic level, but Dr Nicholson found big differences in the type and variety of metabolites in their blood and urine.
IV. “Metabolomics can provide very specific pointers as to what is going wrong and new ways of intervening.”
V. For instance, he found an unexpected metabolic marker, called formate that seems to have a role in regulating blood pressure.

Solution

Statement II can't be the opening statement as "its effects" refers to something. Therefore, we can say that sentence III is the opening statement. 

Statement I and IV are spoken by the same person (Dr Nicholson). Therefore, they should be together. 

The metabolic marker which is mentioned in the statement V is introduced in statement IV. Hence, we can say that IV and V is a mandatory pair. 

Hence, we can say that option D is the correct answer.
