CorrectNot quiteAnswer D

Correct answer: D

P begins the subject, and Q says which water: "we use at home".
Then the verb: S "is wasted because", and "because" is completed by "of" and a noun: T. R adds a second cause.
So the order is PQSTR: "Much of the water we use at home is wasted because of leaking taps and careless habits."

Worth noting

QPSTR opens with "we use at home", which leaves "much of the water" after the clause that describes it.
