Sequence of Events in a Criminal Case

• Crime
• Police
• Judge
• Judgement
• Punishment

Explanation:

• Crime: This is the first event that occurs in a criminal case. It refers to an action that violates the law.

• Police: After a crime has been committed, the police are alerted, and they begin their investigation to gather evidence and identify suspects.

• Judge: The judge presides over the case and makes decisions based on the evidence presented in court.

• Judgement: After the trial, the judge makes a decision on the guilt or innocence of the accused. This is known as the judgement.

• Punishment: If the accused is found guilty, the judge will determine the appropriate punishment based on the severity of the crime and other factors.

Therefore, the correct sequence of events in a criminal case is: 3 (Crime), 1 (Police), 4 (Judge), 5 (Judgement), 2 (Punishment). Option D is the correct answer.

Zara Khan answered
Neither tree M nor tree N is the tallest.
Tree L is taller than tree P but is shorter than tree K,
whereas tree O is as tall as tree P, but taller than tree M.
So, the order may be as follows
1    2    3   4
K    L   P   M
-     -    O   -
As the tree N is not the tallest, K must be the tallest. Choice (b)

Answer:

Conditional statement: I will buy the airplane only if it is the costliest and the fastest.

a) I did not buy the airplane and it is neither the fastest nor the costliest.
- Contradicts the conditional statement as the airplane is not the costliest and the fastest.

b) I bought the airplane and it is not the costliest nor is it the fastest.
- Contradicts the conditional statement as the airplane is not the costliest and the fastest.

c) I bought the airplane and it is the fastest and the costliest.
- Satisfies the conditional statement as the airplane is both the fastest and the costliest.

d) The airplane is the fastest and the costliest and I did not buy it.
- Contradicts the conditional statement as the airplane is the costliest and the fastest but the person did not buy it.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 'C' - I bought the airplane and it is the fastest and the costliest.

Arranging the Given Words in a Meaningful Sequence:

1. Letters
2. Phrase
3. Sentence
4. Word
5. Paragraph

Explanation:

The given words can be arranged in a meaningful sequence as follows:

- Letters: The basic unit of any language is a letter. Without letters, we cannot form any words, sentences, or paragraphs.
- Word: A collection of letters that have a specific meaning is called a word. Words are the building blocks of sentences.
- Sentence: A group of words that convey a complete thought is called a sentence. Sentences can be simple or complex depending on their structure.
- Phrase: A group of words that function as a single unit in a sentence is called a phrase. Phrases can act as nouns, verbs, adjectives, or adverbs.
- Paragraph: A group of sentences that relate to a single topic is called a paragraph. Paragraphs are used to organize ideas and make them easier to understand.

Therefore, the correct sequence of the given words is 4, 1, 5, 3, 2, which is option 'D'.

Snehal Chakraborty answered
Explanation:

Logical Sequence:
1. The logical sequence for the given words is based on the size of the animals, from smallest to largest.

Arrangement:
- The correct sequence would be: Mosquito (smallest), Cat, Elephant, Tiger, Whale (largest).
- Therefore, the correct answer is option (b) 3, 2, 4, 1, 5.

Explanation of the Sequence:
- The smallest animal in the list is the Mosquito.
- The next animal in size would be the Cat.
- Following the Cat, we have the Elephant which is larger in size.
- Next in line is the Tiger, which is larger than the Elephant.
- Finally, the largest animal in the list is the Whale.

Conclusion:
- By arranging the animals in order of their size, we can determine the correct sequence as 3, 2, 4, 1, 5.

Navya Chauhan answered
Explanation:

The correct sequence of the given words is option 'B': 3, 9, 4, 2, 10, 6, 8, 7, 5, 1.

Reasoning:
To arrange the words in a meaningful sequence, we need to consider the human body parts from top to bottom.

1. Skull: The skull is the uppermost part of the human body, so it should come first.
2. Face: The face is connected to the skull, so it comes next.
3. Neck: The neck connects the head to the rest of the body, so it follows the face.
4. Shoulder: The shoulder is located below the neck and connects the upper arm to the torso.
5. Hand: The hand is attached to the arm, so it comes next.
6. Chest: The chest is located below the neck and shoulders, so it follows the hand.
7. Stomach: The stomach is located in the abdominal area, which is below the chest.
8. Thigh: The thigh is the upper part of the leg, so it comes next.
9. Knee: The knee connects the thigh and the lower leg, so it follows the thigh.
10. Heel: The heel is the lower part of the leg, so it comes last.

Arrangement:
Based on the reasoning above, the correct arrangement of the given words is as follows:
3. Skull
9. Face
4. Neck
2. Shoulder
10. Hand
6. Chest
8. Stomach
7. Thigh
5. Knee
1. Heel

Hence, the correct sequence is option 'B': 3, 9, 4, 2, 10, 6, 8, 7, 5, 1.

Malavika Rane answered
Explanation:

To arrange the words in a meaningful sequence, we need to understand the logical order in which these words are typically used in a specific context. Let's analyze the given words:

1. Cut: This word implies the action of dividing or separating something using a sharp tool like a knife or scissors. It is usually the first step in various activities involving materials like cloth, paper, or food.

2. Put on: This phrase suggests the action of wearing or applying something onto oneself or an object. It typically follows the step of cutting, as we need to prepare the material before applying or wearing it.

3. Mark: This word denotes the act of making a visible indication or symbol on a surface, often to provide guidance or reference points. In the context of the given words, marking is likely to happen after cutting and before measuring.

4. Measure: This word implies the process of determining the size, length, or quantity of something using a specific tool or unit of measurement. It is logical to measure the material after cutting and marking, as it helps in obtaining accurate results.

5. Tailor: This word represents a person skilled in making, altering, or repairing garments. In the given sequence, tailor can be placed at the end as it is the final step where the material is transformed into a finished product based on the measurements and markings.

Arranging the words:

Based on the logical order explained above, the correct sequence of the given words is:

4. Measure (to obtain accurate results after cutting and marking)
3. Mark (to provide guidance or reference points)
1. Cut (as the first step in various activities involving materials)
2. Put on (to prepare the material before applying or wearing it)
5. Tailor (to transform the material into a finished product)

Therefore, option 'D' (4, 3, 1, 5, 2) is the correct answer.
