Code:
A B C D

The correct answer is
4 1 2 3

To solve this problem, we need to match the words/expressions in List I with their correct meanings in List II:

  1. Ensue: This word means "to happen as a result." In the context of something following or resulting from an event, "ensue" is the appropriate term. Therefore, the correct match is 4.
  2. Morass: This term generally refers to "muddy ground" or swampy land. Moreover, it can metaphorically describe a complex or confusing situation that is difficult to escape from. Given the options related to literal meanings, "muddy ground" is suitable. Thus, the correct match is 1.
  3. Imbroglio: This term describes a complicated or confusing situation, often involving disputes or misunderstandings. The best match here is option 2, which refers to "complex disputes."
  4. Potpourri: This refers to a collection or mixture of various things, typically dried petals mixed with spices or a medley of things. Hence, the correct match is 3.

Combining these matches gives us the code A, B, C, D as 4, 1, 2, 3. Therefore, the correct answer is 4 1 2 3.
