CorrectNot quiteAnswer D

Correct answer: D

Q has the subject and the verb, and "explained" is followed by "how" and a clause: S.
"Would" needs a verb: R "store water for the dry months", and "and" adds a second verb: P.
So the order is QSRP: "The engineer explained how the new dam would store water for the dry months and produce electricity."

Worth noting

QRPS puts "store water for the dry months" right after "explained", which leaves "how the new dam would" at the end with no verb after "would".
