- RSPQ
- RPSQ
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: D - RPSQ
"Of science" (R) must follow "Some achievements" to complete the subject, then the verb "have made" (P), its object "human life" (S) and the complement "happier and more comfortable" (Q): "Some achievements of science have made human life happier and more comfortable" = RPSQ. Placing "have made" first leaves "of science" stranded later in the sentence.
