CorrectNot quiteAnswer A

Correct answer: A

Explanation

  1. S opens: it names elephants. Q gives the weight of "an adult".

  2. P says what "it", the adult, eats, and R says how a herd finds "so much food".

  3. So the order is SQPR.

Worth noting

SPQR has "it" eat before any single elephant has been mentioned.
