The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

The diagram is a contour map, in which each closed line joins points of equal height.
P lies inside the innermost contour marked 100 (the hill around it is built up from the 60, 70, 80, 90 and 100 contours).
Q lies inside the innermost contour marked 120, after the 100 and 110 contours.
R lies in a low area inside the contour marked 40.
S lies in the band between the 100 and 110 contours.
Heights in increasing order are R (about 40), S (about 100 to 110), P (about 100 or a little more) and Q (120 or more). Q is therefore at the highest level.
