Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
Let's arrange the words alphabetically step by step:
All words start with 'A'. Comparing the second letters: 'b' (Abrogate), 'm' (Ameliorate), 'd' (Adorable), 'c' (Academic).
Arranging by the second letter alphabetically:
'b' comes first ⟹ ii. Abrogate
'c' comes next ⟹ iv. Academic
'd' comes next ⟹ iii. Adorable
'm' comes last ⟹ i. Ameliorate
So, the correct dictionary sequence is ii, iv, iii, i.
