Show Answer

Correct Answer :

Option D

Three

Solution :

The correct option is Three.


Let's understand the required condition to identify the consonants from the given sequence.


We are asked to find the number of consonants that satisfy the following pattern:

Vowel - Consonant - Consonant


This means we need to look for a Consonant such that:

1. It is immediately preceded by a Vowel (a vowel comes right before it).

2. It is immediately followed by a Consonant (a consonant comes right after it).


By analyzing the sequence following the Vowel → Consonant → Consonant structure, we locate exactly Three such consonants that fulfill the criteria.
