| S1: | Biological evolution has not fitted man to any specific environment. |

I think D goes predominantly along with the theme of the same.

The correct answer must be D.
This is because P automatically follows after are. Here QRP must be in sequence and S doesn't fit in between.
Hence the right sequence is SQRP.

I think the correct answer is D. The term evolution in R is further talked about in P. Therefore R and P are concomitant which is in D.

The correct answer would be D.
Statement S elaborates S1, explains the difference between man and other animals. So introductory sentence would be S.
Q gives us the reason for S. Are is in continuation with Q clearly. Q talks about changes, are describes those changes in the form of inventions. Are ends with the word evolution. P describes what kind of evolution it is.
So, the sequence would be SQRP.
