    P) For instance, if a patient is still in the first stage of cancer then a surgery or radiotherapy may help cure the same.

    Q) It is essential to diagnose the cancer stage as it helps in understanding the treatment required for the patient.

    R) If the cancer patient has entered the third stage of cancer, then adjuvant treatment is suggested.

    S) It is a local treatment that only treats one part of the body.

    Solutions
    • Only Q can come first in the sequence as it is an independent statement.

    • The use of "for instance" in P suggests that it should come after Q.

    • P talks about “radiotherapy treatment” and S explains it further, so PS is a pair.

    • R is unrelated to the other three sentences as it talks about the third stage so it should come either at the start or at the end.

    • Only option D fulfills all the conditions. 

    The correct sequence is QPSR.
