The sentences given below, when properly sequenced, form a coherent paragraph. Each sentence is labelled with a number. Decide on the most logical order and enter the sequence of numbers in the space provided. - In this microgravity environment, your blood also tends to move towards the heart and head.
- Both effects are only short-lived and, after a brief period of readjustment on arriving back home, the heart and spine return to normal.
- The heart interprets this as an increase in the amount of blood in the body and that it needs to pump less, so it shrinks.
- In space with less gravitational force than on Earth, there’s less pressure on your spine and so it’ll get a bit longer, effectively making you as much as two inches taller.

Entered answer:
Correct Answer: 4132
The correct sequence is 4132. Sentence 4 introduces the concept of changes in the body in space due to reduced gravitational force. Sentence 1 provides additional details about the effects of microgravity on blood flow. Sentence 3 explains the heart's response to this condition, and sentence 2 concludes by mentioning that these effects are temporary. The sequence logically follows the introduction of the concept, detailed explanation, and conclusion about the effects.
