Correct Answer: (iii), (ii), (i), (v), (iv)

Solution : Given:

(i) Ambitious

(ii) Ambiguous

(iii) Ambiguity

(iv) Animation

(v) Animals

Step 1: Compare the first letter of each word. Since, all the words start with the same letter A , after that move on to the next letter.

Step 2: Compare the second letter of (A m bitious, A m biguous, A m biguity, A n imation, A n imals).

(Ambitious, Ambiguous, Ambiguity) will come before (Animation, Animals).

Step 3: The third letter and the fourth letter of (A mbi tious, A mbi guous, A mbi guity) are same and third, fourth and fifth letter of (A nima tion, A nima ls) are same.

Step 4: Compare fifth letter of (Ambi t ious, Ambi g uous, Ambi g uity) and sixth letter of (Anima t ion, Anima l s).

(Ambiguous, Ambiguity) will come before Ambitious. Similarly, the order for the second set is Animals, Animations.

Step 5: Sixth letter of (Ambiguous, Ambiguity)is same. So comapre the seventh letter of (Ambigu o us, Ambigu i ty)

The order will be Ambiguity, Ambiguous, Ambitious.

Therefore, the final sequence is Ambiguity, Ambiguous, Ambitious, Animals, Animations ((iii), (ii), (i), (v), (iv)) .

Hence, the first option is correct.
