The sentences below are from a draft of an essay about the hunting mechanisms of pitcher plants. To ensure that the paragraph logically builds its claim that the *Nepenthes gracilis* plant utilizes external forces to capture prey, in what order should the sentences be arranged?
- 1While most pitcher plants capture prey using slippery interior walls, *Nepenthes gracilis* relies on a dynamic mechanism that harnesses external environmental forces.
- 2The underside of the plant's lid features a slick, wax-covered surface that insects can typically cling to in calm weather.
- 3When a raindrop strikes the top of this lid, however, it vibrates violently downward like a springboard.
- 4This sudden acceleration instantly dislodges the insects, sending them directly into the pool of digestive fluid below.
Cevap
The sentences should be arranged in the order: 'While most pitcher plants...', 'The underside of the...', 'When a raindrop...', 'This sudden acceleration...'.
The paragraph must begin with the claim introducing *Nepenthes gracilis* and its reliance on external forces. Next, the baseline condition of insects clinging to the lid in calm weather is described. This is followed by the contrasting event of a raindrop strike, and finally, the immediate consequence of that strike ('this sudden acceleration').
