Rearrange the following sentences to form a coherent paragraph: 1. These factors include the amount of sunlight received, the composition of the atmosphere, and the Earth's orbit.
2. The long-term variations in Earth's climate are influenced by a complex interplay of natural and anthropogenic factors.
3. The most significant anthropogenic factor is the emission of greenhouse gases from industrial activities.
4. Together, these elements determine the planet's overall energy balance and, consequently, its average temperature.
2, 1, 4, 3
The paragraph should move from a broad thesis → listing → synthesis → a specific sub-point:
2 — Topic sentence: climate is influenced by natural and anthropogenic factors (sets up the whole paragraph).
1 — Elaborates the natural factors listed ("these factors include…").
4 — Synthesises the natural factors with "Together, these elements determine…".
3 — Picks up the anthropogenic thread from sentence 2, identifying the most significant one.
The coherent order is 2, 1, 4, 3, matching option (A).
Hence, the correct answer is (A).
