    A BDAC Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B ABCD Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C BADC Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D ADCB Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E BCAD Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    (c) is the right answer. BADC is the correct sequence. B begins the sentence by establishing the context- a photo has been clicked somewhere. A takes the sentence forward by stating the place where the photo was taken-on the Arctic ice in Greenland. D and C form a pair. D talks about sled dogs and consists of a verb stem. C follows D as it describes how the sled dogs were passing through ankle deep water over an ice sheet.
