R. When a butterfly lands on a leaf, tiny hairs on its feet tell it what the plant is.

CorrectNot quiteAnswer D

Correct answer: D

Explanation

  1. P opens with the surprising fact. R explains how it works "when a butterfly lands".

  2. S says who "this" matters most to, Q says what "she" must choose, and T is what she does with "so".

  3. So the order is PRSQT.

Worth noting

PSRQT says "this matters most" before the paragraph has explained how the tasting works.
