Arrange the given words in the sequence in which they occur in the dictionary.
i. Prandial
ii. Preach
iii. Priam
iv. Price
v. Pseudo

  1. A
    iii, iv, v, i, ii
  2. B
    i, v, iv, ii, iii
  3. C
    i, ii, iii, iv, v
  4. D
    v, iii, iv, i, ii

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Let's order the given words alphabetically step-by-step:
All words start with 'P'. Looking at the second letters:

'r' in Prandial, Preach, Priam, Price

's' in Pseudo
Since 'r' comes before 's', Pseudo (v) will be the last word.

Now comparing words starting with 'Pr':

Prandial (third letter 'a')

Preach (third letter 'e')

Priam (third letter 'i')

Price (third letter 'i')

Sorting by third letter:

'a' comes first → Prandial (i)

'e' comes next → Preach (ii)

Next is 'i'. Let's compare Priam and Price by their fourth letters:

'a' in Priam

'c' in Price
Since 'a' comes before 'c', Priam (iii) comes before Price (iv).

Putting it all together, the exact sequence is:
i. Prandial → ii. Preach → iii. Priam → iv. Price → v. Pseudo

Thus, the proper order code sequence is i, ii, iii, iv, v.
