CorrectNot quiteAnswer D

Correct answer: D

Explanation

  1. P is the subject, and Q gives its verb and "whenever", which needs a clause.

  2. R gives that clause its subject and verb, and "rings" needs an object: T "the bell at". S says where.

  3. So the order is PQRTS: "Our neighbour's dog barks loudly whenever someone rings the bell at the front gate."

Worth noting

QPRTS opens with "barks loudly whenever", a verb with no subject.
