Arrange the following w.r.t increasing life span : Rose, Fruit fly Rice

Options

A. Fruit fly, Rice Rose
B. Rose, Rice, Fruit fly
C. Rice, Rose, Fruit fly
D. Fruit fly, Rose, Rice

Answer

To arrange the organisms (Rose, Fruit Fly, and Rice) in order of increasing lifespan, we need to understand the lifespan of each organism:

1. **Fruit Fly (Drosophila)**: The lifespan of a fruit fly is approximately 40 to 45 days.
2. **Rice**: The lifespan of rice is around 3 to 4 months (approximately 90 to 120 days).
3. **Rose**: The lifespan of a rose plant is about 5 to 7 years.

Now, we can arrange these organisms in order of increasing lifespan:

- **Fruit Fly**: 40 to 45 days
- **Rice**: 3 to 4 months (90 to 120 days)
- **Rose**: 5 to 7 years

Thus, the order from shortest to longest lifespan is:
1. Fruit Fly
2. Rice
3. Rose

Therefore, the correct arrangement in increasing order of lifespan is:
**Fruit Fly < Rice < Rose**
