Solutions
S1. Ans. (d)
Sol. Going through the given sentences it can be clearly seen that statement (C) will be the first sentence in the arrangement because it is independent and it tells us about the food products that can be referred to as natural if it is a single food derived from a recognised natural source and has nothing added to it.
This will be then followed by statement (D) which gives us information regarding natural food products that it should only have been processed to render it suitable for human consumption. It is then followed by statement (E) which states that the packaging of natural food products must be done without chemicals and preservatives. Statement (E) will be then followed by statement (A) which further mentions that composite foods, a mixture of plant and processed constituents, cannot be called ‘natural’, instead, they can say ‘made from natural ingredients’. Finally, the paragraph will be concluded by statement (B) which states that fresh can be used for those food products that are not processed in any manner other than washing, peeling, chilling, trimming, cutting or irradiation by ionizing radiation not exceeding 1 kGy or any other processing such that it remains safe for consumption with the basic characteristics unaltered. So, the final arrangement would be CDEAB.
