Correct Answer:

DBAC

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option (4) - DBAC

The correct order of the jumbled sentences is DBAC.

  • Sentence D is the first sentence because it introduces the main idea of the paragraph. It tells us that sunbirds feed on nectar mostly and help in pollination.
  • Sentence B follows sentence D because it provides more information about the diet of sunbirds. It tells us that they also eat small insects.
  • Sentence C follows sentence B because it highlights another unique feature of sunbirds. It tells us that they are some of the most brilliantly-colored birds.
  • Sentence A follows sentence C because it provides a contrast to the previous sentence. It tells us that sunbirds are functionally similar to hummingbirds, but they are not related.
