- To arrange the deserts in increasing order of their size, let's look at their approximate areas:

- Great Sandy Desert (Australia): about 284,993 sq km

- Gobi Desert (Asia): about 1,295,000 sq km

- Arabian Desert (Middle East): about 2,330,000 sq km

- Sahara Desert (Africa): about 9,200,000 sq km

- Now, in order from smallest to largest:

I (Great Sandy) < IV (Gobi) < II (Arabian) < III (Sahara)

- Option 2 is: I, IV, II, III

- This matches the correct order.

Option:2 I, IV, II, III
