Hint: To find the correct sequence you need to understand the meaning of the sentence by reading all the parts of the question carefully. And also try to search for the subject and predicate because we follow the subject + verb + object while making a sentence.

Complete answer:
The first statement should be the extension of the first line and in the sequence, it must connect with the first line. S is the best choice that perfectly connects with the subject line. Hence, the line becomes “When a spider has a meal, it eats enough. Afterwards R: R continues by telling us the time. It means it is describing how much time the subject can resist itself from eating. R is followed by Q: Q conveys that up to which time the spider can stop themselves from eating. Q is followed by P: P specifies that reason until when the spider stopped eating. Finally, the correct solution is “When a spider has a meal, it eats enough to last for many months until it has its next meal.” Thus, the sequence is S-R-Q-P.

Therefore the correct answer is option ‘B’.

Note: All the other options are only distractions.Choose the option which makes some meaning. The tip to solve these questions is to focus on the first and last part of the sentence as they are more helpful rather than the middle one. Afterwards, test all the options available and select the sequence which brings some meaning.
