Which term describes something arranged in order of time?

• A. Chronological or Sequence
• B. Text Structure
• C. Description
• D. Problem

Answer: (A)

Think of organizing events by when they happen. When items are listed from earliest to latest, that is chronological order. This term is used specifically to describe time-based sequencing, like a history timeline or a diary of events as they occurred. The word sequence is similar and can describe order, but it’s broader and not always tied to time—sometimes it refers to steps in a process or a non-time progression. Text structure is about the overall pattern a passage uses to organize information (it could be chronological, but it could also be cause-and-effect, compare-and-contrast, etc.). Description focuses on detailing features of something, not on arranging events by time. Problem relates to a question or issue, not ordering.

So, the best fit for “arranged in order of time” is chronological.
