Arrange the following Mountain peaks in increasing order of their heights from the sea level:

(A) Kanchanjunga
(B) K-2
(C) Nanda Devi
(D) Nanga Parbat

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

(C), (D), (A), (B)

The correct answer is Option (1) → (C), (D), (A), (B)

To arrange these mountain peaks in increasing order of their heights from sea level, we first need to look at their specific elevations:

1. Nanda Devi (C): Standing at 7,816 meters, it is the highest peak located entirely within India's borders.
2. Nanga Parbat (D): Known as the "Killer Mountain," it has an elevation of 8,126 meters, making it the ninth-highest mountain in the world.
3. Kanchanjunga (A): With a height of 8,586 meters, it is the third-highest peak in the world and the highest in India.
4. K-2 (B): Also known as Mount Godwin-Austen, it stands at 8,611 meters, making it the second-highest mountain on Earth (after Mount Everest).

Increasing Order of Height:

• Nanda Devi (7,816 m) < Nanga Parbat (8,126 m) < Kanchanjunga (8,586 m) < K-2 (8,611 m)
• Sequence: (C), (D), (A), (B)
