Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Correct sequence: Newly married couple → Family → Caste → Clan → Species

Mapping of the given numbered list to words:

  • 3 = Newly married couple

  • 2 = Family

  • 1 = Caste

  • 4 = Clan

  • 5 = Species

Why this order?

  • Newly married couple is the smallest social unit (two people).

  • Family is a larger unit that includes the couple and other related members.

  • Caste is a broader social grouping that organizes many families by social/occupational identity.

  • Clan refers to a wider kinship grouping or lineage association that can encompass multiple families or groups within broader social systems.

  • Species is the most general/broad category and therefore comes last.
