Answer: Option C
Answer: (c)
The advocates are A, B and R; the doctors are C, D, P, Q and S; male teacher is E. Clearly, E will be selected. E and Q have to be together. C and Q cannot be together.
So, C will not be selected. P also cannot be selected because U is not selected. So, two other doctors D and S will be selected. P is not selected, so A will not be selected. D is selected, so B cannot be selected.
Thus, the team is D, E, Q, R, S.
