Answer 1

To show a smooth non-linear progression of events, the best arrangement of the sentences would start with the early actions and then move toward the later ones in a logical order. The correct choice is:

**Taylor, age 10, plants an apple seed. A tiny apple tree sprouts from the ground. Apples grow on the tree. Taylor, now a teenager, picks an apple off the tree.**

This places the time of planting the seed first, then the growth of the tree, followed by the apples maturing, and concludes with Taylor, now a teenager, enjoying the fruit of the tree.
