  • D
    Q S P R

Solution

The correct sequence is formed by connecting the parts logically and grammatically.

Part Q introduces the subject clause: 'that sporting activities are an integral part'.

Part P completes the subject clause and provides the main verb: 'of school education is an ineluctable truth'.

Part S introduces a relative clause modifying 'truth': 'that underscores the learning process and contributes'.

Part R completes the verb 'contributes': 'meaningfully towards the overall growth of a student'.

The complete sentence reads: 'That sporting activities are an integral part of school education is an ineluctable truth that underscores the learning process and contributes meaningfully towards the overall growth of a student.'

This corresponds to the sequence Q P S R.

Answer: Q P S R

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
