Explanation:

Ans: (b), P is fourth sentence of the given passage.

TSRPQ6 is the final order. T begins the passage by telling us how a place’s height is measured traditionally. S follows by giving us an example of a mountain and how its height is measured using this method. R follows by telling us how maps bear markings that indicate the usage of this method. PQ follows as a pair: P tells us of a new method that can be used to measure a place’s height. Q follows by telling us of the previous example of the mountain, and telling us how its measurement would differ should this new method be used. 6 concludes the passage by telling the changes that this new method measurement would bring.
