Correct Answer: QPRS


Solution : The correct choice is the third option : QPRS .

Explanation : It begins with the eruption of the volcano Anak Krakatau (Q) , which caused a landslide (P), subsequently triggering a tsunami in the Sunda Strait (R). This series of events resulted in a tragic loss of lives, amounting to more than 400 people (S). This sequence aligns logically with the cause-and-effect relationship of a volcanic eruption leading to geological consequences, ultimately resulting in a catastrophic event.

Therefore, the correct sentence would be: In December 2018, an eruption of the volcano Anak Krakatau caused a landslide that triggered a tsunami in the Sunda Strait (Indonesia) and killed more than 400 people.
