Correct Answer: QPRS
Solution : The correct answer is the third option.
Explanation:
The sentence "Q" should be followed by "P." The preposition "by" must take an agent after it, which is "The American political economist Mancur Olson, who wrote in 1965".
"P" is followed by "R" by the relative pronoun "that," and further, "R" must be followed by "S" to state the reason.
The first sentence introduces the person (Mancur Olson) and the topic (problems of collective action), while the second sentence elaborates on Olson's perspective.
Therefore, the correct sequence is QPRS .
