CorrectNot quiteAnswer D

Correct answer: D

S opens with how little one bee makes. T says how much work "a jar" takes.
P says what "they" do with the nectar, R is "then", storing it, and Q draws the lesson with "so".
So the order is STPRQ.

Worth noting

STRPQ stores "the thick honey" before the nectar has been carried back and dried.
