Answer 1

The sentence that shows a smooth non-linear progression of events is C: "A tiny apple tree sprouts from the ground. Apples grow on the tree. Taylor, age 10, plants an apple seed. Taylor, now a teenager, picks an apple off the tree."

This progression moves from the result of the planting (the tree sprouting and growing apples) to the action of planting the seed and then to the later event of picking an apple, creating a non-linear and somewhat abstract timeline that effectively conveys the connectedness of the events.
