Answer:

A) 1, 3, 4, 2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. A small ship called the Mayflower set sail from Plymouth, England, on September 16, 1620. 3. On board were over one hundred passengers. 4.Many of the passengers were Puritans who had been persecuted for their religious beliefs in England. 2. These people came to be called Pilgrims and borrowed money from English merchants in order to make the journey across the Atlantic Ocean.

This is the most logical order as the sentences are arranged from general, to specific: The paragraph starts by introducing the sailing of a "Mayflower", which gives us the general setting and put us on context; the following sentence focuses on more specific elements to what is in the boat: one hundred passengers. Then the fourth and fifth sentence provide us with further details of who those passengers are.
