Which definition best matches sequence?

• A. The order or pattern in which things happen or take place
• B. A set of things that is put in a specific order
• C. A collection of episodes of a television show that use the same characters in different situations
• D. A minor change in something

Answer: (A)

Sequence is about the order and progression of events. The best definition captures that by describing the order or pattern in which things happen or take place, which conveys how actions unfold over time and relate to one another. The other ideas focus on static arrangement (a set of items in a specific order), a TV show collection (episodes with the same characters), or a minor modification (an adjustment), none of which address the unfolding progression that sequence refers to. So this definition directly reflects the idea of events occurring in a particular order.
