Explanation:

Let’s break down the clues, step by step:

- There are 8 people: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H.

- Four face North, four face South. No more than two facing the same way in a row.

- D isn’t at an end; H faces North.

- D is immediately right of H. A is third to the right of D.

- Two people between A and E.

- A is second to the left of B; B is immediately right of C. B and C both face South.

- G isn’t next to F. G doesn’t face South.

- F isn’t at an end and faces the opposite of A.

Let’s think about the seating:

1. Since D is immediately right of H, and D is not at the end, their spots are close to the left.

2. A is third to the right of D, whittling down possible positions.

3. B sits right of C, both facing South; A is two to the left of B.

4. G can’t sit next to F; F isn’t at an end, faces opposite to A.

5. Not more than two people in a row face the same way; this limits sequences.

Run through placements, you’ll see:

- H (facing North), then D, then others arranged accordingly.

- Following the clues, C-B (both South) have to come together.

Second to the right of D, after arranging everyone, is C.

So the correct answer is:

Option:2, C

Option 2: C.

Here’s what’s happening:

- The seatings lead you to C at that position, not F.

- F’s placement is forced elsewhere by adjacency and direction rules.

- The arrangement allows all clues to fit without contradiction.

So—Option 2, C, is the right pick.
