Correct Answer: C 2, 1, 4, 3

Explanation:
The correct sequence of the given mountain ranges of India from north to south is as follows:

1. Aravalli Range: This is one of the oldest mountain ranges in India, running in a southwest-northeast direction through Rajasthan, Haryana, and Gujarat.
2. Vindhya Range: Located south of the Aravallis, the Vindhyas run parallel to the Narmada River and form a geographical divide between North and South India.
3. Satpura Range: Situated further south, this range runs parallel to the Vindhyas and lies to the south of the Narmada River.
4. Ajanta Range: Located in Maharashtra, the Ajanta Range is part of the Western Ghats and lies further south compared to the other ranges.

Hence, the order from north to south is Aravalli Range, Vindhya Range, Satpura Range, and Ajanta Range (2, 1, 4, 3).
