What will be the third sentence after the rearrangement?
Correct
The given paragraph is about extracting cellulose from the plant tissues.
F must be the opening sentence since it explains the fact that plants are rich in cellulose. F must be followed by D since it states that though plants are rich in cellulose, plant tissues have cellulose in combined state and hence, some processes must be carried out to extract the cellulose. D must be followed by B since it introduces the method to extract cellulose. Sentence A must follow B since it states how the process must be repeated till materials other than cellulose dissolve. Sentence E must follow sentence A since it states how the remnants obtained must be converted to cellulose. C must be the concluding sentence since it talks about the qualities of the cellulose obtained by the process.
The correct order is FDBAEC.
As we can see, B will be the third sentence after the rearrangement. Therefore, option A is the right answer.

What is the SECOND sentence?
Correct
Let’s start with identifying the sentences which play the role of the context, main point, and details. Sentences A, C, D, E, and F are detail sentences. Sentence B can either be the main point or context. But, if B is the main point, the discussion should lead to this conclusion. But this is not the case. The other sentences are actually taking the idea forward. So, B is the contextual sentence. B should also be the starting sentence for other sentences to make sense. Sentence E should follow sentence B since it is essentially an extension of sentence B. Sentence A should follow E as it takes the idea mentioned in E forward. Furthermore, C and D form a pair since in C the author introduces the topic of mistakes and D takes it forward. Sentence C uses the pronoun ‘this’ to refer to some method by which one can avoid mistakes. Only sentence F, among all the sentences, offers some advice or method that sentence C might be referring to. Thus, C follows F. So, the sequence becomes- BEAFCD. Thus, the second sentence is E.
