Hint: You can use the hit and trial method and find the meaningful sentence.

Complete step by step answer:
Option a would give ‘People (P) who act in public (S) should (T)stay at home.’ (Q) This is a meaningful sentence. Therefore, the correct answer is a P-S-R-T-Q.

Option b would give ‘People who act in stay at home public should.’ This sentence does not make sense. People who act in what? Should what? This arrangement is wrong. Thus, b is incorrect.

 Option c would give ‘People stay at home public who act in should’ The sentence again makes no sense as. ‘Who’ and ‘should’ are placed wrong.

Option d would give ‘People should stay at home public who act in.’ This too is incorrect. The only meaningful sequence we have is option a.

Note: This sentence cannot end with should in any case. With the help of this one can eliminate the options in which the sequence ends with should.
