The correct answer is

O

O is correct.

Q and R sit at the two ends and N is fourth to the right of Q, so Q is at the left end, N is in 5th place and R is at the right end. P sits between M and O in places 2 to 4, and M is not next to N, so M is 2nd, P is 3rd and O is 4th.

The arrangement from left to right is:

QMPONR

N is in 5th place, so the person third to the left of N is M in 2nd place. The person second to the right of M is O in 4th place.
