Statements :
I. T is not the shortest.
II. R is taller than S but shorter than Q.
III. P ranks third in height above S when all are arranged in the order of height.
Answer: Option B
From the given statement, the descending order of heights is :__, Q,__, S,__.
From II, we have the order: _, Q, R, S,__. Thus, R is in the middle.
From III, we have the order : P, Q,__, S,__. But, according to I, T is not the shortest.
So, R is the shortest. Thus, we have the order : P, Q, T, S, R. So, T is in the middle.
