Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 1 : Idiots, morons, backward, superior, genius

The correct sequence is:

• Idiots- These are the individuals whose mental development never exceeds that of a normal child of about two years.
• Morons- These individuals whose development is higher than that of an idiot, but whose intelligence does not exceed that of a normal child of about seven years.
• Backward- These individuals whose mental development is above that of a moron, but does not exceed that of a normal child of about twelve years.
• Superior- superior intelligence is an unscientific class of intelligence that is supposedly possessed by only some 15% of humans. This intelligence is associated with individuals with IQ above 120
• Genius- A genius is a person who displays exceptional intellectual ability, creative productivity, universality in genres, or originality, typically to a degree that is associated with the achievement of new discoveries or advances in a domain of knowledge. Geniuses may be polymaths who excel across many diverse subjects or may show high achievements in only a single kind of activity.

Hence, the correct sequential order from least intelligence to most intelligence is Idiots, morons, backward, superior, genius
