Question
In the question given below four words are given in bold.
These four words may or may not be in their correct position. The sentence is then followed by options with the correct combination of words that should replace each other in order to make the sentence grammatically and contextually correct. Find the correct combination of the words that replace each other. If the sentence is correct as it then select option (5) as your choice.

âDehydrationâ and âheatstrokeâ are common heat-related conditions â they logically fit the start of the sentence.
âExacerbated chronic illnessesâ means existing health problems have worsened, which fits the context.
âPushing the health system to its limitsâ correctly conveys that extreme heat is putting pressure on healthcare.
Hence, swapping A-C and B-D gives us a grammatically and contextually correct sentence.
